Why work for Core?

We are accredited & qualified

We are UKAS accredited to ISO/IEC 17020 for all types of asbestos surveys and ISO/IEC 17025 for asbestos sample analysis and air monitoring. Our surveyors hold the P402 as a minimum standard, whilst our asbestos laboratory staff hold the P401 as a minimum and our air monitoring staff the P403 and P404 as a minimum.

In addition to this, we are also members of Constructionline and ATAC and are certified by SMAS and CHAS. Our surveyors, as well as their industry-specific training also hold a variety of other training, including CSCS; IOSH Managing Safely; IPAF; PASMA; First Aid at Work; Manual Handling; Working at Height; and confined space training.

At Core Surveys, we obtain all accreditations and certifications necessary to ensure we are providing the best possible service to our clients, and we provide our staff with all relevant training to ensure their safety and that of our clients, at all times, whilst at the same time providing a cost-effective asbestos solution all under one roof. 

We are experienced & passionate

Our asbestos consultants have extensive experience and a genuine passion for the industry, whilst we provide all of our asbestos services under one roof.

Our experience enables us to deal with the most complex of asbestos surveys and portfolios and by providing both surveys and sample analysis, as well as air monitoring, it means we can respond quickly without needing the involvement of third parties, particularly in the case of emergency situations when a quick turnaround of sample results or air monitoring is required.

We’re large enough to cope and small enough to care 

We have offices in the South of England and South Wales and offer a nationwide service. Our clients range from homeowners requiring a single residential asbestos survey, to large national companies or councils, requiring several thousand commercial surveys. Our team of asbestos surveyors, air monitoring analysts, laboratory analysts and project staff treat every client with the same care and attention to detail.

We are used to working with those who know the ins and outs of the industry as well as those who have never come across asbestos before. Our staff will always spend the time answering any queries you may have as we realise that asbestos can be a worrying word, but with the right help, it doesn’t need to be.
