Asbestos testing in Hill Brow
Asbestos testing for Hill Brow properties
A test is the right choice when you are worried about particular materials. If you’re planning bigger work in Hill Brow, a survey of the areas affected is generally better, and we will say which makes sense. Typical jobs include soffit boards and boards and panels before a kitchen or bathroom refit, including black adhesive, textured ceilings and garage roof sheets.

Common questions in Hill Brow
Do you work near Liss station?
Yes. Liss station is about 1.1 miles north-west of Hill Brow, and we cover both.
Could my house in Hill Brow contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Hill Brow can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Do you do air testing?
Air testing for clearance is done by an independent UKAS-accredited analyst. Ask us and we will explain what applies to your job.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
How many samples will I need?
Generally one for each different material, sometimes more. We will recommend a number once we know more.

What happens next
If no asbestos is found, work can typically go ahead normally, and you can show the result to your builder.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Clear access to the area
- Let us know what you want to do next
- Send photos of the material and where it is
- Leave the material undisturbed until we have sampled it
Avoid these
Test before booking the builders, so there is no delay later.
Photos are helpful, as long as you don’t disturb anything.
A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles are often found under newer floors; test them before they come up.
Flues and tanks
Testing them before removal avoids surprises.
Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
