When you're dealing with asbestos, you need a company you can completely rely on. We are dedicated to giving you a safe, reliable, and clear service from start to finish, built on trust and local understanding.

  • Fully Insured & Compliant: We hold comprehensive Public Liability Insurance. All our work strictly follows HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012), giving you peace of mind.
  • Certified & Licensed: We have a valid Waste Carriers Licence, so you know all asbestos waste is handled and disposed of legally and with care for the environment.
  • Local, Qualified & Experienced Team: Our technicians are thoroughly trained and have years of practical experience identifying, managing, and removing asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) from a wide range of properties, right here in Berkhamsted and Hertfordshire.
  • Clear Pricing: We provide detailed quotes with no hidden costs. You'll understand exactly what the job involves before we even begin.
  • Comprehensive Service: From the first inspection and testing to safe removal, secure disposal, and even reinstatement works, we manage the entire process for you.
  • Homeowners, Businesses & Industrial Experts: We have the skills and equipment to manage projects of any size, from a single asbestos sheet in a garden shed to a full site survey for a factory.

Identifying the exact location, type, and condition of asbestos is the vital first step. Our thorough surveys give you the information you need to manage any risks and comply with legal requirements.

  • Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: This is an important check before buying any property. It helps identify potential hidden asbestos costs and safety risks, protecting your investment.
  • Asbestos Management Surveys: This is a legal requirement for all non-domestic properties. We find any ACMs, assess their condition, and create a report and register to help you manage them safely, keeping your building compliant.
  • Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: This is a legally mandatory, intrusive survey that must be completed before any building work, refurbishment, or demolition begins. It protects everyone involved in the project.
  • Re-inspections: We can carry out regular re-inspections to monitor the condition of asbestos we've previously identified, keeping your management plan current and effective.

If you have found a material you suspect might contain asbestos, it’s crucial not to disturb it. Our team can safely take a sample and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. This gives you a definitive result and a certificate, removing any guesswork. We commonly test materials such as:

  • Textured coatings (like Artex) on ceilings and walls
  • Asbestos cement (found in garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, gutters)
  • Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper
  • Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB)
  • Pipe insulation and old boiler flues

Used Southern Asbestos to remove old Artex ceilings from our home in Maidenhead before a big renovation. The team was punctual, tidy, and took every precaution to ensure the area was safe. They left the site spotless. A very professional and trustworthy company.

Fantastic service. We had some old asbestos floor tiles that needed removing. The team was fast, friendly, and very knowledgeable. They handled all the waste disposal and provided the consignment note as promised. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
