An old vinyl floor can be more than just an old floor.

Some older vinyl flooring products may contain asbestos, which is why appropriate assessment and sampling can be important before renovation work continues.

In this case, a sample was taken from the flooring and sent for laboratory analysis to determine whether asbestos was present.

Old vinyl flooring can be more than just an outdated part of a property.

Some older vinyl flooring products may contain asbestos. That’s why, when asbestos is confirmed, the material needs to be removed safely and correctly.

In this case, the old vinyl was removed after asbestos was identified, showing why older flooring shouldn’t simply be lifted, cut or disturbed without knowing what you’re dealing with.

A routine asbestos survey.

Something needed checking.

A sample was taken and sent for laboratory analysis.

Then came the question: was it?

The result: NOT IDENTIFIED AS ASBESTOS CONTAINING.

That’s why asbestos sampling and laboratory testing matter you don’t guess. You check.

A renovation can look completely straightforward.

Until you stop and ask one question:

What are we about to disturb?

In older properties, materials may need to be identified and assessed before renovation or maintenance work begins.

Because the important check isn’t always what you can see.

It’s what could be disturbed when the work starts.

Plan the work. Check first. Then get the tools out.

Some buildings keep their secrets for decades.

Behind the walls, under the floors and above the ceilings, older properties can hold materials nobody has checked in years. Nothing shows from the outside, and only a lab can say for certain.

That is why every owner of an older building should know what is inside it before the first tool comes out.

Send this to someone who owns one.

If you need reassurance that you're safe, just give us a call.

Be honest — how many did you get right? 👀
