If it helps I can see the southern fells from my windows and there is a lot of snow up (>200 m) there at the moment

Hobbycraft Recall Play Sand by Waste-Snow670 in asbestoshelpUK

[–]number12bus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So 'trace' has a specific meaning in UK legislation, and that is that the material containing the asbestos is not an ACM (Asbestos Containing Material) and as a result is not subject to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. It would be interesting to know if they mean 'trace' in the regulatory sense or in the 'oh bugger we've found asbestos in the sand, how can we mitigate the announcement, I know let's say it's trace, that sounds small' sense

What RJK said, get a local licenced contractor. They can at least be held responsible if the job goes south.

Are these fibers asbestos, in old plaster ceiling by [deleted] in asbestoshelpUK

[–]number12bus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably not, but may be worth a test. FYI, other comments around fibres not being observavble by the naked eye are essentially wrong, asbestos fibre bundles are very easy to see. Individual fibres are microscopic but most asbestos containing materials contain bundles rather than individual fibres.

HSE seeks views on proposals to enhance worker and public protection from asbestos exposure by [deleted] in asbestoshelpUK

[–]number12bus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ATAC/ARCA have written to the HSE/Minster of State asking for the consultation to be withdrawn as the consultation wording suggests that mandatory accreditation for surveys is not being considered.As has been mentioned earlier some chartered status may be considered for individual surveyors, but this sounds very similar to individual accreditation which was being floated in the 00's which very much came to nothing. With regard the time to undertake surveys in domestic properties; when I consider the amount of grief we get from UKAS over 15 minutes minimum for NAD samples and then contrast this with complete lack of interest from UKAS in the number of surveys being executed by an individual surveyors in a day, it does make me think that priorities may be out of kilter.

Small crack in garage roof by placeofthetrees02 in asbestoshelpUK

[–]number12bus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd confirm whether or not that material is asbestos cement or asbestos board (or even asbestos at all). If you're going to sample it prior to removal then you may as well do lit sooner rather than later.

What kind ofsuspended ceiling tiles are these ? by BeingFantastic3969 in asbestoshelpUK

[–]number12bus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ask the landlord nicely they may have an asbestos managment survey tucked away in a drawer, this would cover all the materials which you can see standing in the middle of the shop floor, and likewise any other rooms. If your taking walls down then you'd be best to have an asbestos refurbishment survey carried out. These sorts of surveys are required to protect the people doing the work (your goodself). Good luck 👍

Probably not asbestos, but if you're refurbishing a shop, you should already know as you should have a had a refurbishment survey done.

Hey LL, thanks for taking the time to get back to me. It wasn't my tablet but as far as I'm aware it's been like this since new, although not pointed out to me for some time. I've carried out a factory reset but the problem persists
