- Experts for Any Property: Whether it’s a single asbestos sheet in a garden shed or a full site survey for a factory, we have the skills and equipment to handle projects of any size – domestic, commercial, or industrial.
Finding out where asbestos is, what type it is, and its condition is always the critical first step. Our detailed surveys give you the exact information you need to manage any risk and meet legal requirements.
- Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: An essential check before you buy a property in Gerrards Cross. We identify potential hidden asbestos costs and any safety risks, helping you make an informed decision.
- Asbestos Management Surveys: This is a legal requirement for all non-domestic properties. We find any ACMs, check their condition, and create a report and register. This helps you manage them safely over time.
- Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: If you plan any construction, refurbishment, or demolition work, a legally mandated, intrusive survey must happen first. We make sure you’re compliant before any tools come out.
- Re-inspections: We can carry out regular re-inspections to keep an eye on asbestos you’ve already found. This ensures your management plan stays current and effective.
If you've spotted something you think might contain asbestos, the most important thing is: do not disturb it. Our team can safely take a sample and send it off to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. You’ll get a clear, definitive result and a certificate. We often test materials like:
- Textured coatings (often called Artex) on ceilings and walls.
- Asbestos cement, commonly found on garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, and gutters.
- Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper.
- Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB).
- Pipe insulation and boiler flues.
Our main service is safely removing non-licensed asbestos from all types of properties. Our trained team follows strict procedures. We contain the area, remove the materials, and leave your property clean and safe. - Domestic Removal: We often remove asbestos from Gerrards Cross garages, sheds, outbuildings, soffits and fascias, floor tiles, and old cement water tanks.
- Commercial Removal: From office refurbishments to shop fit-outs, we remove asbestos cement panels, ceiling tiles, and other ACMs with minimal disruption to your business.
- Industrial Removal: We handle larger jobs too, like removing asbestos cement roofing and cladding on warehouses, factories, and agricultural buildings.
Handling Asbestos Responsibly: Collection, Disposal & Encapsulation
Sometimes, you might already have asbestos that has been removed or dismantled. We offer a professional collection service for this. We make sure it's correctly wrapped, then transport it to a licensed hazardous waste facility. You’ll receive all the necessary legal paperwork, like a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note, for your records.
In certain situations, if the asbestos is in good condition, taking it out might not be the only answer. Encapsulation involves sealing or enclosing the material. This stops fibres from getting out and can be a very cost-effective and safe way to manage it. After we’ve removed asbestos, we can also offer a full reinstatement service. This means replacing roofs, ceilings, flooring, and walls to get your space back to normal and ready to use again.
