London, UK - Supernova Asbestos Surveys offers asbestos sample testing in a laboratory accredited by the UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service), as per the HSG264 Asbestos: The Survey Guide.
An asbestos test identifies asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in buildings to ensure safety and regulatory compliance. Asbestos fibres can cause serious health issues, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. Thus, asbestos management is regulated under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 for property owners, managers, and employers to manage ACMs or face legal penalties.
Supernova Asbestos Surveys serves clients who want to keep buildings safe before renovations or demolition, when buying or leasing a property, when facing health concerns, during ongoing building management, or after natural disasters. This is through management, refurbishment, re-inspection, pre-purchase, and sampling surveys.
Supernova Asbestos Surveys London discovers ACMs in insulation, flooring, roofing, ceilings, and walls. Trained and qualified professionals then safely collect samples of the suspected materials and send them to a laboratory for analysis. The company adopts safety measures such as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), controlled sampling, and decontamination.
The lab identifies the type and concentration of asbestos fibres using advanced techniques such as polarised light microscopy (PLM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The detailed report of the findings includes the type of asbestos detected, its concentration, and recommendations for managing/removing the ACMs.
Supernova Asbestos Surveys also offers asbestos testing kits, a DIY approach that allows homeowners and small property managers to collect samples safely and efficiently. The kits contain all the necessary instructions, making them cost-effective, convenient, and accessible.
Beyond asbestos testing, the company can arrange for asbestos removal services. This comprehensive approach to service has earned the team many glowing reviews;

He explained everything as he went along, double-checked we were happy with where he was sampling, and answered questions with patience and clarity…Getting the report back within 3 days was excellent...” Effy, Satisfied Client.
In addition, Supernova Asbestos Surveys London provides fire risk assessments for businesses, multi-occupancy buildings (HMOs), and shared areas in flats. This service spots fire risks, uncovers who’s at risk, evaluates these risks, and creates a fire safety plan.
