Asbestos testing near Frogmore
Asbestos testing near Frogmore
A test answers one question: is this material asbestos? In Frogmore, we take samples of suspect materials and send them to an accredited laboratory, so you have a written answer before any work starts. Typical materials include soffit boards, garage roof sheets and panels behind heaters, and typical jobs are garage and shed roofs before removal or repair and Artex ceilings before plastering, sanding or drilling.
In towns and villages like Frogmore, we are often asked to test garage and shed roofs. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Duty holders and landlords in Frogmore
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Afterwards
If asbestos is found, we will explain your options: it may be left, covered or removed, depending on your plans.
A few practical points:
- Group several materials into one visit
- Make the area easy to reach
- Send photos of the material and where it is
- Tell us if there’s adhesive under tiles
Don’ts
Take photos from a safe distance, without touching the material.
Get the result before work is booked, so there’s no delay later.
Prices and what affects them
Prices vary with:
- The size and age of the building
- Access to the area
- The type of survey you need
- Lofts, voids and outbuildings to include
The cost of asbestos testing depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
Photos that help
What to photograph:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Labels, if any
- The parking area
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
What we deal with in Frogmore
Most exposure happens when someone disturbs a material without knowing it contains asbestos. A test beforehand prevents it.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Single materials in rented homes between tenancies
- Floor tiles and black adhesive
- Porch canopies
- Garage and shed roofs before removal or repair
For older homes anywhere in Frogmore, from near St Barnabas Church outwards, it’s worth testing suspect materials before work.

Questions from Frogmore
Do you cover Frogmore and the area around Sandhurst station?
Yes. Sandhurst station is about 0.8 miles north of Frogmore, and we cover both.
Could my house in Frogmore contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do you work in Frogmore?
Yes, we do: Frogmore is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
