Asbestos testing for Euston
Asbestos testing for Euston properties
Asbestos materials often look just like materials without it. Only a laboratory can tell you for sure, and that’s what we arrange in Euston. People often contact us about something broken during building work and soffits and porch canopies before replacement, including flue pipes, garage roof sheets and black adhesive.
Properties in Euston may have layers of past work, so testing what’s actually there matters. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

How we price asbestos testing
These are the main things that affect the price of asbestos testing:
- The quantity or area
- The survey type
- Travel and parking
- How much sampling is needed
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Common questions in Euston
Can you work in Euston with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.
Do you work near London Euston station?
Yes, we cover Euston, including the streets around London Euston station.
Should I use a home testing kit?
HSE’s advice is that a competent person should take samples, because the material has to be disturbed. Ask us to take it.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.
Do you do air testing?
We do not carry out air testing ourselves: clearance testing after licensed removal is carried out by an independent UKAS-accredited analyst. We will tell you if your job needs it.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
Materials we deal with
Boards and panels
Some boards are insulating board, which is higher risk. A test tells you which.
Cement sheets
Garage and shed roofs are often tested. Testing confirms whether it’s asbestos cement.
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Helpful guides
What’s included, and what isn’t
So you know what to expect:
- Clearance air testing after licensed work is done by an independent UKAS-accredited analyst
- Identifying the material is the first step; removal is planned separately
- Testing doesn’t look for anything else, so it is not a substitute for a survey before major work
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
Common materials
- Floor tiles
- Roof felt
- Bitumen adhesive
- Soffit boards
- Panels behind heaters
- Flue pipes
- Garage roof sheets
- Artex and textured ceilings
- Pipe lagging
- Water tanks
Looking after things afterwards
Some results mean the work is licensed, and we will explain what happens then.
Going forward:
- If tiles and adhesive are both exposed, mention it
- Clear access to the area
- Group several materials into one visit
- Keep the results for future work or a sale
Avoid these
Keep everyone away from damaged material, and don’t try to clean it up.
If a material is already damaged, keep people and pets away from it, and don’t try to clean it up.
Choosing the right option
How many samples? Each different material needs its own sample, and sometimes tiles and adhesive or coatings in different rooms need separate samples. Every quote says whether VAT is included.
