Asbestos
Asbestos is dangerous, and if there are any fibres on your property, you have a legal obligation to identify and control the problem. Our surveyors in Plymouth offer comprehensive surveys and advice and a professional asbestos report for your home or premises in Devon and Cornwall. Fulfil your responsibilities with help from D & C Surveys, making sure that you’re taking all possible action when it comes to asbestos management.

How to Identify Asbestos
It’s difficult to conclusively determine whether a material contains asbestos from a visual inspection alone, which is why our professional asbestos surveyors are the best for the job. Some products contain identification marks, but in other cases, there are a number of specialist asbestos laboratories that provide testing and analysis services.

If you suspect that you may have asbestos on your property, it’s important to contact our experts, rather than try to handle it yourself.

Types of Asbestos
There are six different types of asbestos with different appearances and properties, but, as it is mixed in with other materials, it is impossible to determine which is which without laboratory testing. The six types are:
  • Chrysotile (white asbestos)
  • Amosite (brown asbestos)
  • Crocidolite (blue asbestos)
  • Tremolit
  • Anthophyllite
  • Actinolite
Legionella
If you run commercial or residential premises or you’re buying or selling a home, it behoves you to have your water systems surveyed regularly. In fact, the law states that property owners are required to regularly check their water systems for Legionella, the bacteria that causes Legionnaire’s disease. D & C Surveys in Plymouth perform Legionella risk assessments and testing in Devon and Cornwall for both your peace of mind and the public health.

What is Legionella?
Legionnaires' disease is a potentially fatal form of pneumonia caused by the inhalation of small droplets of water contaminated with Legionella. Bacteria may grow inside any manmade hot- and cold-water system, and may multiply in favourable conditions, including:
  • Suitable Growth Temperature Range
  • Aerosol Droplets Produced and Dispersed
  • Water Stored or Recirculated
  • Unhygienic Conditions, e.g. Rust, Sludge, Scale, or Biofilm
As the bacteria multiply within a large or small system, the risk of exposure and contamination is increased, and therefore it must be checked and managed efficiently.

Risk Assessment
D & C Surveys help you to fulfil your duty of care by carrying out a risk assessment and identifying any potential problems with your water system. As an employer or a person in control of premises, you must appoint someone to be responsible for risk management, including all inspection and control measures. Our experienced surveyors are more than qualified to ensure your property is free of Legionella.
