Asbestos Re-encapsulating Soffits – Bedfordshire
Work carried out
Re-encapsulating Soffits
Location
Bedfordshire
Type of Asbestos
Amosite Asbestos
Project Description
Asbestos Fighters were contacted by a school in Bedfordshire as they were concerned about the soffits on their building.
After a thorough inspection of the soffits, we advised the school that they could in fact be encapsulated - covered up so that they were protected with Asbestos Insulation Board (AIB) - instead of being removed.
This work was completed without any disruption to the routine or safety of the pupils at the school.
Following the re-encapsulating soffits work, we will now carry out an annual inspection to ensure they continue to be protected against the elements, keeping the pupils and staff safe.
