If you have found a material you suspect contains asbestos, it is really important not to disturb it. Our team can take a sample safely and send it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. This gives you a definitive result and a certificate, letting you know exactly what you are dealing with. We commonly test materials such as:
- Textured coatings (like Artex) on ceilings and walls
- Asbestos cement products (often found in garage roofs, wall panels, soffits, and gutters)
- Vinyl floor tiles and their backing paper
- Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB)
- Pipe insulation and boiler flues
Knowing for sure is the crucial first step to managing any risk.
Identifying exactly where asbestos is, what type it is, and its condition forms the critical first step in managing any risk. Our detailed surveys give you the information you need to protect health and comply with the law.
- Home Buyer Asbestos Surveys: An essential check before buying a property. This helps identify potential hidden asbestos costs and safety risks, giving you clear insights.
- Asbestos Management Surveys: This is a legal requirement for all non-domestic properties in Banstead. We pinpoint any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), assess their condition, and create a report and register. This report helps you manage them safely and legally.
- Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys: This legally mandated, intrusive survey must be completed before any construction, refurbishment, or demolition work starts. It protects everyone involved in the project.
- Re-inspections: We can carry out scheduled re-inspections to monitor the condition of asbestos we have previously identified. This keeps your management plan current and effective.
Safe Asbestos Removal & Management
Our core service is the safe removal of non-licensed asbestos from all kinds of properties across Banstead. Once testing confirms asbestos is present and you decide to remove it, our trained team follows strict procedures. We contain the area, remove the materials carefully, and leave your property clean and safe.
- Domestic Removal: We regularly remove asbestos from garages, sheds, outbuildings, soffits and fascias, floor tiles, and old cement water tanks in homes around Banstead.
- Commercial Removal: From office refurbishments to retail fit-outs, we remove asbestos cement panels, ceiling tiles, and other ACMs with minimal disruption to your daily operations.
- Industrial Removal: We handle larger-scale removal of asbestos cement roofing and cladding on warehouses, factories, and agricultural buildings.
We also offer a professional collection service if you have asbestos that has already been safely removed or dismantled. We make sure it is correctly wrapped and transported to a licensed hazardous waste facility, providing you with all the necessary legal paperwork for your records. In some cases, if the asbestos is in good condition, removal may not be necessary. Encapsulation means sealing or enclosing the material to stop fibre release, which can be a cost-effective and safe solution. After removal, we can also offer a full reinstatement service, replacing roofs, ceilings, flooring, and walls to get your space back to normal.
