South Ruislip: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in South Ruislip homes?
If your home in South Ruislip was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover South Ruislip and the area around South Ruislip station?
Yes. South Ruislip station is close to the centre of South Ruislip, and we cover the whole area.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. To do that, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
