Many properties built or refurbished before the year 2000 in Epsom, like elsewhere, might contain asbestos in their floor tiles or the underlying adhesive. These tiles often look like vinyl, thermoplastic, or bitumen-based flooring. While undisturbed, they generally pose a low risk, any plans for renovation, repair, or removal can release dangerous asbestos fibres into the air. Breathing these fibres can lead to serious health issues years down the line. It's crucial not to disturb these materials yourself; always call in the professionals.

When you choose Southern Asbestos for your Epsom property, you get a meticulous, safe, and regulated service. Our trained technicians first assess the area to create a detailed plan. We set up strict containment zones to prevent any fibre spread and use specialised equipment and negative pressure units where necessary. We then carefully remove the floor tiles and adhesive, avoiding breakage wherever possible. After removal, we thoroughly clean the area using H-type vacuums and carry out air monitoring to confirm the space is completely safe before we sign off the work. All asbestos waste goes to licensed hazardous disposal sites, with full paperwork for your records.
