Finding out if you have asbestos is the crucial first step to keeping everyone safe. You can't tell if a material contains asbestos just by looking at it – it needs expert analysis. Disturbing asbestos unknowingly can release dangerous fibres into the air, posing serious health risks. Our professional asbestos testing service provides a definitive answer, confirming whether those suspicious materials actually contain asbestos. This vital information allows you to make informed decisions about managing or removing it, protecting your family, employees, or future occupants. Don't guess, get it tested.

If you've found a material you suspect contains asbestos, the most important thing is not to disturb it. Our qualified team will visit your property in Ashford at a time that suits you. We'll carefully and safely take a small, discreet sample of the suspected material. We follow strict safety protocols to ensure no fibres are released during this process. Once collected, your sample goes straight to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. You'll then receive a clear, definitive certificate stating whether asbestos is present, what type it is, and what you should do next. It's a simple, reliable way to get the answers you need.

Asbestos was used extensively in building materials before the year 2000, so many properties in Ashford could contain it. Our team regularly tests a wide range of common materials that often hide asbestos. This includes the textured coatings (often known as Artex) found on ceilings and walls, robust asbestos cement sheets commonly seen on garage roofs or old shed panels, various vinyl floor tiles and their backing, and even old pipe insulation or boiler flues. If it looks suspicious, we can test it and give you a clear answer.
