See something that could be asbestos? Speak up 📢

When you're working on a refurbishment, maintenance or construction project, you may come across something unexpected - an old board, insulation, ceiling material or flooring that doesn't look quite right.

You might think someone else has already checked it. Don't assume.

If you think a material could contain asbestos:

🛑 Stop work
🚫 Don't disturb it
👷 Keep people away from the area
📢 Raise the concern
🔎 Seek specialist advice

You don't need to know that it's asbestos. You just need to recognise that it could be.
Speaking up early could help prevent unnecessary exposure, avoid contamination and stop a small concern from becoming a much bigger problem for your project.

As part of Speak Up Month, we've looked at why everyone working on a building project has a role to play in identifying and raising potential asbestos concerns.

This week is National Work Life Week 🏡

A safe workplace starts long before someone walks through the door. For businesses operating from older buildings, asbestos management is an important part of creating a safe working environment.

It's not enough to have an asbestos survey sitting in a filing cabinet. The information needs to be current, accessible and understood by the people who may encounter asbestos during maintenance or refurbishment.

For all of your asbestos needs - contact Enquin.

Five Signs You May Need an Asbestos Survey 👇

If your building was constructed before 2000, it's important to understand when an asbestos survey is needed. Here are five common signs:

✅ 1. Your building was built before 2000
Asbestos was widely used in construction until it was banned in the UK in 1999.

✅ 2. You're planning refurbishment or maintenance
Before any work that could disturb the building fabric, a Refurbishment Survey will be required.

✅ 3. You don't have an up-to-date asbestos register
If you're responsible for managing a non-domestic building, keeping asbestos information current is essential.

✅ 4. Contractors are due to start work
Anyone carrying out maintenance or refurbishment should have access to relevant asbestos information before work begins.

✅ 5. You're buying or taking responsibility for an older property
Understanding whether asbestos is present can help you manage future maintenance safely and remain compliant.

An asbestos survey isn't just about meeting legal requirements - it's about protecting everyone who works in or uses your building.

💬 Not sure which type of survey you need? Our team is happy to help.

Did You Know that asbestos was banned over 25 years ago but it's still in millions of UK buildings ❌

Although asbestos was fully banned in the UK in 1999, it's still estimated to be present in millions of buildings across the country.

If your building was constructed before 2000, asbestos may still be present in materials such as:

🏢 Ceiling tiles
🔥 Fire doors
🧱 Cement roofing and wall panels
🚰 Pipe insulation
🪟 Floor tiles

The good news? Asbestos isn't always dangerous if it's in good condition and left undisturbed. The risk arises when materials are damaged or disturbed during maintenance or refurbishment.

That's why surveys and effective asbestos management are so important.

Choosing an asbestos consultancy? Here's why UKAS accreditation matters 🔎

When it comes to managing asbestos, the quality of the advice you receive matters.

A UKAS-accredited asbestos consultancy has been independently assessed for competence, technical expertise and quality - giving clients greater confidence that surveys, reports and recommendations are accurate, reliable and based on recognised standards.

But what does UKAS accreditation actually mean, and what should you look for when choosing an asbestos consultancy?

Our latest article explores:

✅ What UKAS accreditation means

✅ Why competent advice is essential for asbestos management

✅ The importance of independent consultancy

✅ The risks of choosing a provider based solely on price

✅ What to look for when selecting an asbestos consultancy

At Enquin, we're proud to provide independent, UKAS-accredited asbestos consultancy services to organisations across South Wales and the UK.

In the News 📢

You may have seen in the news recently that a construction site supervisor has been fined after exposing pupils and staff to asbestos fibres during refurbishment works at a primary school in Bristol.

According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), asbestos insulating board was cut using a circular saw, releasing fibres into the school hall, which continued to be used by pupils and staff for two days. The HSE found that asbestos awareness training and site procedures had not been followed, resulting in a successful prosecution.

While this case is concerning, it also highlights some important reminders for anyone responsible for managing refurbishment projects:

✔️ Never assume a building is asbestos-free because previous work has taken place.

✔️ Ensure the correct asbestos survey has been completed before refurbishment begins.

✔️ Make sure contractors have access to the asbestos survey and understand the findings.

✔️ If suspected asbestos is discovered, stop work immediately and seek specialist advice.

✔️ Asbestos awareness training is only effective if safe working practices are followed on site.

What does this mean for building owners?

If you're responsible for a building constructed before 2000, this case is a timely reminder that managing asbestos isn't just about compliance, it's about protecting the people who work in and use your building.

Before any maintenance or refurbishment project starts, make sure you have:

📋 An up-to-date asbestos survey

📍 A current asbestos register

📝 An asbestos management plan

👷 Contractors who have received the relevant asbestos information before work begins

Good planning can prevent costly delays, enforcement action and, most importantly, unnecessary exposure to asbestos.

What is asbestos air monitoring and why is it so important?

When asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, microscopic fibres can become airborne. These fibres are invisible to the naked eye, so air monitoring is the only way to confirm whether an area is safe during or after asbestos-related work.

Asbestos air monitoring is used to:

✅ Check whether asbestos fibres are present during removal or remediation work.

✅ Ensure control measures are working effectively and that fibres aren't escaping the work area.

✅ Confirm an area is safe to reoccupy following licensed asbestos removal through Four Stage Clearance Testing.

✅ Provide reassurance after accidental damage to asbestos-containing materials or as part of an ongoing asbestos management strategy.

At Enquin, our fully mobile, UKAS-accredited air monitoring service includes:

✔️Background monitoring

✔️Reassurance monitoring

✔️Personal monitoring

✔️Enclosure leak testing

✔️Four Stage Clearance Testing
