Asbestos testing for Fullerton
Asbestos testing near Fullerton
Landlords, homeowners and contractors in Fullerton use testing before small jobs: replacing a ceiling, lifting a floor, taking down a garage roof or fitting new soffits. We often deal with garage roof sheets, black adhesive and textured ceilings, and typical jobs are garage roofs before replacement and checks before maintenance in rented homes.
In places like Fullerton, outbuildings and farm buildings are common testing jobs, since cement sheeting was widely used. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:

- How much sampling is needed
- Location, parking and any London charges
- How much there is
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.

Your questions about asbestos testing in Fullerton
Do you cover small places like Fullerton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Fullerton and the area around Andover station?
Yes, we cover Fullerton and the area towards Andover station, about 4.3 miles north.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Do you test textured ceilings?
Yes, we test textured coatings. Older coatings can contain a small amount of asbestos.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Can I take a sample myself?
Sampling is best left to a competent person, according to HSE, because the material has to be disturbed. We can do it for you.
Typical tests in Fullerton

What’s included, and what is not
Some limits to bear in mind:
- We can’t confirm asbestos from a photo
- Testing does not look for anything else, so bigger work needs a survey
- Identifying the material is the first step; removal is planned separately
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.

Should you do it yourself?
