Many common building materials used before the year 2000 often contained asbestos. You might be looking at an old cement roof, textured ceiling coating (like Artex), or even some vinyl floor tiles and wondering, "Is this safe?" Trying to identify asbestos by eye is impossible and dangerous. That's where we come in. Our expert technicians safely take a small sample of the suspicious material, sending it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for thorough analysis. You’ll receive a clear, conclusive report, so you know exactly what you’re dealing with and can breathe easier.
We regularly test materials like:
- Textured coatings (often found on ceilings and walls)
- Asbestos cement (common in garage roofs, soffits, and wall panels)
- Vinyl floor tiles and their backing
- Asbestos Insulating Board (AIB)
- Pipe insulation and old boiler flues
We know you want a straightforward solution when you're worried about asbestos. Our testing service is designed to be as simple and stress-free as possible for you. First, just give us a call on 01753 309625. We'll discuss your concerns and arrange a convenient time for one of our trained professionals to visit your Fleet property. Our technician will safely take a small, discreet sample of the suspect material without causing any further disturbance. We then carefully package it and send it off for urgent analysis at a UKAS-accredited laboratory. Once we get the results back, we'll explain everything clearly to you, providing a certificate that confirms whether asbestos is present.
When it comes to potential asbestos, guessing is simply not an option. Professional testing is crucial for several key reasons. Firstly, it's about safety. Disturbing asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) can release dangerous fibres into the air, posing serious health risks to you and anyone else in the property. A definitive test tells you if there's a risk. Secondly, for businesses and landlords in Fleet, understanding if you have asbestos is often a legal requirement under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. Testing gives you the evidence you need to comply. Finally, knowing for sure means you can plan properly – whether that's safe management, professional removal, or simply having peace of mind that the material is safe. Don't put off getting that vital answer.
