You might be tempted to take a sample yourself, but disturbing asbestos can release dangerous fibres into the air. This is a serious health risk. Our fully trained and experienced technicians in Tring follow strict safety protocols. We carefully take samples, ensuring the area is contained and your property remains safe. We then send these samples to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for accurate analysis. This professional approach means you get definitive, reliable results without putting yourself or others at risk.

From your initial call to receiving your results, we make the asbestos testing process as simple and stress-free as possible. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Get in Touch: Contact our friendly Tring team to discuss your concerns and book a visit.
2. Safe Sampling: Our qualified technician visits your Tring property, identifies suspected materials, and carefully takes small, discreet samples.
3. Laboratory Analysis: Samples are rushed to an independent, UKAS-accredited laboratory for expert analysis.
4. Clear Results: We provide you with a comprehensive report and certificate detailing whether asbestos is present and, if so, what type.
   This efficient service means you get answers quickly, allowing you to make informed decisions about your property.

Asbestos was a popular building material for decades, used in over 3,000 products before its ban. If your Tring property was built or refurbished before the year 2000, there’s a chance asbestos could be present. We commonly test materials such as:

• Textured coatings (like Artex) on ceilings and walls
• Asbestos cement (often found in garage roofs, sheds, wall panels, soffits, and gutters)
• Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper
• Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB) used in partition walls, ceiling tiles, and fireproofing
• Pipe insulation and old boiler flues
• Gaskets and sealants
  If you’ve found something suspicious, don't touch it – just give us a call.
