We get asked a lot of questions regarding the testing , removal and disposal of asbestos. Here are some of the most common questions answered to help assist you:
If your property (domestic or commercial) was built before the year 2000 it is likely there may be some asbestos present.
Asbestos was used as a common building product with White Asbestos being banned in 1999.
Asbestos is safest left where it is unless it is damaged , showing signs of wear or likely to be disturbed.
For example , if you have asbestos floor tiles which are in good condition , these can be overlaid with new flooring.
We can!
Whether you have a small piece or a large quantity , we can collect and dispose of the asbestos safely. You will always be provided with a certificate of disposal and a receipt.
This depends on the type of asbestos you have.
We do have set prices for loose sheet collection , single and double garages as well as Floor Tiles.

Asbestos fibres are so small they can only be seen under a microscope.
They cannot be seen by the naked eye
Although we can give you a judgement on whether we think a material COULD be asbestos , no one can be 100% sure without a test at an accredited lab being carried out.
The material is analysed by a professional and certified results provided.
Although White Asbestos (Chrysotile) is not as fibrous as Blue and Brown Asbestos , it is still a carcinogenic , therefore it should only be handled by professionals who have received the correct training.
