  1. Contact Us: Give our Woking-based team a call or fill out our online form to discuss your concerns. We’ll offer initial advice and arrange a convenient time to visit your property.
  2. Safe Sample Collection: Our trained asbestos technicians will visit your Woking property to carefully and safely take a small sample of the suspected material. We use specialist equipment and containment procedures to ensure no fibres are released during this process.
  3. UKAS Lab Analysis: The collected sample is then securely transported to a UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) accredited laboratory for detailed analysis. This is where experts definitively identify if asbestos is present and, if so, which type.
  4. Clear Results & Report: Once the analysis is complete, you’ll receive a comprehensive report outlining the findings. If asbestos is detected, the report will clearly state the type and offer advice on the best course of action.

Asbestos was used in thousands of building products right up until its ban in 1999, meaning many Woking properties built or refurbished before 2000 could contain it. It’s often impossible to tell if a material contains asbestos just by looking at it. Our testing service commonly identifies asbestos in materials such as:

  • Textured Coatings (Artex): Often found on ceilings and walls in older homes.
  • Asbestos Cement Products: Common in garage roofs, shed panels, drainage pipes, soffits, and water tanks.
  • Vinyl Floor Tiles & Adhesives: Often found in kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms.
  • Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB): Used in partition walls, ceiling tiles, fire doors, and around boilers/pipework.
  • Pipe Lagging & Flues: Insulating material around old heating systems.

What Happens After Asbestos Testing? Your Next Steps

Once our lab analysis confirms whether asbestos is present in your Woking property, you’ll have the clear information needed to make an informed decision. If asbestos is identified, we don't just leave you with a problem; we offer a full range of compliant solutions:

  • Asbestos Management Advice: If the asbestos is in good condition and undisturbed, managing it in place might be the safest and most cost-effective option. We can advise on this.
  • Full Asbestos Surveys: For larger properties or planned renovations, a comprehensive asbestos survey can identify all ACMs.
  • Safe Asbestos Removal: If removal is necessary, our expert team can safely and legally remove non-licensed asbestos materials, from garage roofs to floor tiles, ensuring proper disposal.
  • Asbestos Encapsulation: In some cases, sealing or enclosing asbestos can prevent fibre release without full removal.
