Why Choose Horizon Environmental?

Professional Expertise

 Visual inspections cannot identify asbestos-containing materials. Our certified surveyors use proven methodologies to ensure accurate identification and comply with HSE regulations.


Protect Health & Compliance

 Avoid serious health risks with expert analysis, safeguarding building occupants, workers, and meeting your legal obligations under current asbestos regulations.


Common Signs of Asbestos in Buildings:

Identifying asbestos can be challenging without professional testing. Look out for these common indicators:

  • Textured coatings on ceilings or walls (e.g., Artex applied before 1985)
  • Insulation boards in walls, ceilings, or around boilers and pipework
  • Old pipe lagging or sprayed coatings in plant rooms and basements
  • Ceiling tiles and floor tiles from buildings constructed before 1980

Important: If you suspect asbestos, never attempt to sample or disturb materials yourself. Always consult a professional to confirm its presence safely.
