Health & Safety Executive - Asbestos: The analysts' guide for sampling, analysis and clearance procedures

There are several reasons why air monitoring for asbestos is carried out. The main ones are described below.

Background Asbestos Air Monitoring

Background air monitoring is conducted to establish airborne fibre concentrations prior to any activity that may lead to airborne asbestos contamination or in specific locations with known asbestos based materials.

Leak Asbestos Air Monitoring

Leak air monitoring is carried out outside the enclosure/work area while work is in progress. It is undertaken to verify that the control measures are adequate to control asbestos fibre release to the outside.

Four Stage Clearance Asbestos Air Monitoring Hook

Asbestos Air Monitoring HookFour stage clearance air monitoring is undertaken following the removal of asbestos based materials (generally notifiable materials such as insulation boards, insulation and coatings) under fully controlled conditions. This will enable a Certificate of Reoccupation to be issued to assure those reoccupying the area that it is safe to do so.

Stage 1
Check for job completeness: the site and paperwork is inspected to ensure set-up is correct and matches the plan of works and notification form submitted to the HSE. The enclosure is not entered at this point.

Stage 2
Thorough visual inspection: the inside of the enclosure is checked to ensure all asbestos has been removed as per the plan of works. The inspection includes looking for any asbestos debris.

Stage 3
The air test: when the analyst is satisfied that the area is clean and tidy, they will run the air test inside the enclosure. The number of samples taken depends on the size of the area. All surfaces are brushed down to ensure no fibres remain.

Stage 4
Assessment of site for reoccupation: the site is checked for cleanliness again once the enclosure has been dismantled.

Reassurance Asbestos Air Monitoring

Reassurance air monitoring is conducted to determine asbestos fibre concentrations upon completion of the assessment of site for reoccupation (final stage of four stage clearance air monitoring) or following the removal of non-notifiable asbestos containing materials (such as vinyl floor tiles, cement products, textured coatings) or following the disturbance of suspected or identified asbestos containing materials.

Personal Asbestos Air Monitoring

Personal sampling is conducted to assess whether or not the personal exposures of workers comply with the relevant control limits and to determine the suitability of respiratory protective equipment being used.

I just wanted to drop you a quick note in recognition of the excellent service we have had from you on the Pyramid House project re: asbestos surveys. It’s been really refreshing to work with such a pro-active organisation and I will certainly be mentioning your name in the office as a potential surveyor for use on other projects. Many thanks indeed.

Many thanks to you and Stacey for undertaking this Asbestos Survey at Seale Village Hall. I have been very impressed with the professional approach and the thoroughness of the exercise. I have read the report and am pleased to find we do not have any major issues to deal with, and the one area that was identified will be addressed. Thanks again and best regards.

Very happy with the work carried out. The team were punctual and worked hard to get the job done quickly. They juggled other jobs around so that we could get our survey done asap as they knew that we could not move forward with the project until the asbestos survey had been carried out. Really professional and helpful. We would certainly recommend.

Paul Mackie
Project Manager

We were recommended Airsafe by another contractor and they certainly did not let us down. Great communication and professionalism from start to finish. Survey and monitoring and subsequent reports were carried out to high standard and they were always more than happy to spend time answering our questions. Thank you.
