I am in the process of quoting for a full house rewire in a 1930’s 2 up 2 down property, currently unoccupied.
Having been in the loft and generally looking round the property it is obvious no work has been done in a long time (lath and plaster ceilings, VIR cable etc).
I have completed the asbestos awareness course and will be advising the client that an asbestos survey will be required prior to any work being undertaken.
What are the groups thoughts on these companies that send you a kit to take samples to send off and be tested?
Would you take samples, with appropriate ppe, and send off or would you subcontract the sampling out?
If asbestos is found then it will obviously need removing by a specialist company before work goes ahead.
