• Manage financial costs: Identifying, removing, and disposing of asbestos can be expensive. Our surveys, testing, and management services help you make informed decisions to avoid unnecessary costs.
• Avoid project delays: Confirming the presence of asbestos before a project begins can avoid the discovery of asbestos during construction or renovation, which often requires halting work until the asbestos is properly removed.
• Mitigate negative publicity: Potential damage to a property owner's or organization's reputation is always a concern if asbestos issues become public knowledge – by ensuring you are fully compliant, you reduce any reputational risk.
• Reduce environmental Impact: Using our expert professional services helps to ensure that you are environmentally responsible in your asbestos strategy.

• Put the health of yourself, your tenants, and employees first: Ensuring the health and safety of tenants or employees who may be exposed to asbestos in buildings or facilities can be a significant concern. We recommend that sampling and testing is only conducted by fully qualified individuals. Why risk the health of yourself or your tenants and employees? The Element team of experts can help.
• Avoid decreased property valuation: Asbestos contamination can decrease a property's value, making it more difficult to sell or rent. By ensuring you have identified any asbestos risk and thoroughly dealt with the issue prior to sale, you can negate any decrease in the value of your property.
