Asbestos testing near Frogmill

Village homes in towns and villages like Frogmill often mix old and newer materials, so testing each one is the only way to be sure. We only recommend work that is needed, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

For businesses and landlords in Frogmill
If your business premises in Frogmill were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

FAQs for Frogmill
Could my house in Frogmill contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Frogmill may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Frogmill from London?
Frogmill is about 32 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
How many samples will I need?
Normally one for each different material, with extra where the same material appears in different places. Photos help us suggest a number.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Weighing up your options
You can buy home testing kits, but you have to disturb the material yourself to use one. HSE advises that a competent person takes samples. The cost of asbestos testing depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Flues and tanks
Testing them before removal avoids surprises.
Textured coatings
We take a small piece of the coating.
Afterwards
We seal the sample point when sampling, so the material is left safe in the meantime.
Staying safe afterwards:
- File the result with your property paperwork
- Leave the material undisturbed until we have sampled it
- Send photos of the material and where it is
- Not sure between a test and a survey? Ask
Don’ts
Leave the material alone until the result is back.
Keep everyone away from damaged material, and do not try to clean it up.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
