Asbestos law doesn’t only regulate buildings; it regulates work. If your people maintain or refurbish pre-2000 premises, you carry duties around information, instruction and training: tradespeople remain the most asbestos-exposed group in Britain.
We help Croydon employers get the human side of asbestos right: awareness briefings for real trades, management plans people actually follow, RAMS reviewed by someone who removes the stuff, and honest disturbance procedures.
Awareness briefings for maintenance, facilities and trade teams
Emergency procedures that assume mistakes happen; because they do
From exposure reality check to live incident support, every engagement is built around what your people actually do and the buildings they actually enter.
We look at what your people actually do and where; which buildings, which tasks, which materials they’re liable to meet, and map the duties that follow
Management plans, permit-to-work arrangements and disturbance-response procedures written for your operation, in language your youngest apprentice can follow.
Awareness sessions built around the buildings your people actually enter; what the materials look like, where they hide in Croydon-era stock, and exactly what to do on discovery. Sessions run half a day or less, on your site or ours, with attendance records issued for your training file.
A number your supervisors can call when something suspect turns up mid-job; triage, testing and documentation handled while the rest of the site keeps working.
Guidance from people who survey and remove daily, not laminate-and-forget consultants.
Briefings that respect the room and land because of it.
The response procedure exists before the drill goes through the board.
A six-person maintenance team doesn't need a corporate compliance edifice, and we won't sell one.
FAQS
If they’re liable to disturb asbestos in the course of their work; and in pre-2000 buildings, maintenance work qualifies, then yes, information, instruction and training are a legal requirement, refreshed regularly. Formal task-specific training goes further for anyone actually working on materials.
Stop, keep others out, don’t sweep or vacuum, don’t remove overalls into clean areas, and report it. Our disturbance procedure covers the first hour in plain steps; and our line covers the same hour with live advice, sampling and air testing where needed.
Awareness training for the team, a habit of asking for the client’s register before intrusive work, a simple discovery procedure, and a specialist number for the grey areas. That’s genuinely most of it; done properly, it fits on a page and in a toolbox talk.
Yes. We review method statements against what era-typical buildings actually contain, and flag where a survey, testing or a changed sequence is needed before your team is committed. Cheaper before mobilisation than after discovery.
Training records, the registers you’ve been given, permits and RAMS for intrusive work, and documentation of any discovery events including air-test results. If an incident ever escalates, that file is what demonstrates you ran a competent operation.
Both. One-off setup for firms getting the basics right, retained support for those who want briefings refreshed, documents maintained and a specialist permanently on the end of the phone. Fixed fees either way.
Annually is the accepted standard, with earlier refreshers when roles, buildings or regulations change. Our retained arrangements put the refresh date in our diary so it never silently lapses in yours.
By preference. Training lands better in the mess room where the work happens, built around your actual buildings and tasks rather than stock photography of someone else’s.
Trades, facilities teams, schools, landlords and managing agents across Croydon and the surrounding area; anyone whose people work in pre-2000 buildings, which around here is nearly everyone.
