About us

Armco Asbestos Consultants – Company history

Armco Asbestos Consultants is an ISO9001 certified company that I set up about 16+ years ago with a clear vision to be the best Asbestos Management, Training & Surveying Consultancy that it was possible to be.

Our BOHS accredited company works with customers large & small throughout the UK, from PLC businesses to small private companies, and all receive the same friendly, professional service from our team that I’d expect to receive from others.

Armco Asbestos Consultants specialise in the provision of Asbestos testing, Asbestos Management Surveys and Asbestos Refurbishment Demolition surveys. 

You can read more about when each type of Asbestos survey may be required and what it involves by clicking on the links or by visiting the pages from the top menu on our website.  

We have a quality management system which complies to ISO 9001 and we are also affiliated members of The British Occupational Hygiene Society.

No matter where you may be located, or whatever type of property or building you are working on, if you wish to safely discharge your mandatory responsibilities and mitigate the dangers others face in being exposed to asbestos, if you are responsible for others safety, then you need a professional, friendly and experienced partner, and that’s where we can help you.

Our Asbestos Surveyors have worked with Asbestos for over 15 years as both asbestos surveyors, trainers and removers.

We’re experienced with working with almost every type of asbestos containing material.

We’ve worked with, trained and surveyed for everyone from major blue chip companies to small local companies.

All our Asbestos Surveys are expertly tailored to meet your business requirements.
