Asbestos Surveying

Tersus holds Type C inspection body status. We are accredited by UKAS under the criteria of ISO/IEC 17020. We offer comprehensive survey and assessment packages designed to ensure that you comply fully with all current legislation.

Tersus has locations across the UK enabling a truly national surveying package, delivering a uniform solution to contracts that are being carried out nationally.

Surveys meet UKAS accreditation standards using methods laid out in HSG 264, The Survey Guide. We can undertake all survey categories - Management, sampling and assessment, and Pre-demolition/major refurbishment.

We offer an 'on line' Asbestos Management Reporting System, free to our clients, which means that your survey reports are accessible 24 hours per day, 365 days per year to all authorised persons within your organisation and your contracting partners.

Air Testing

Tersus is accredited by UKAS to ISO/IEC 17025:2005 to sample and count fibres away from a permanent fixed laboratory in accordance with HSG 248 'The Analysts Guide'. Fibre counting is carried out in one of our mobile laboratories, which are themselves regularly checked and inspected to comply with UKAS accreditation.

Tersus currently has around 30 mobile laboratories located across the UK. All come equipped with a complete range of equipment designed to undertake on-site air monitoring, 4 stage clearance testing and the production of Certificates of Re-occupation.

With our air testing services we offer a wide range of monitoring services:

Site clearance certification - 4 stage testing (L143) to CAR2012, Guidance HSG247

Certificate of Re-Occupation

Decontamination clearance testing

Background sampling

Leak (enclosure check) sampling

Reassurance sampling

Personal monitoring

Compliance sampling - assessment for need for respirator protection.

Bulk Identification

Tersus provides an accredited bulk sampling and identification service from fixed laboratories at each of its office locations.

We can either, visit your site, take a sample of a suspect material and analyse the sample in one of our accredited laboratories, or analyse samples that you send directly to us. We can analyse one exploratory sample or several samples, such as would be the case where a full survey has been carried out.

Whatever approach is chosen we analyse all samples to the same high standards as demanded by our UKAS accreditation. All asbestos samples analysed in the UK must be analysed by a laboratory accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2005. We are accredited and meet these standards.

We appreciate the urgency with which you may need to address asbestos issues and for urgent samples can provide information to you on the same day we receive, or take, samples. Under normal circumstances we aim to turn around Bulk Identification of asbestos samples within 72 hours of receipt in our labs.
