Asbestos testing near Maids Moreton
If something has been damaged during work in Maids Moreton, stop first. A test will show whether it contains asbestos. From single materials in rented homes between tenancies and textured ceilings before a renovation, we deal with floor tiles, garage roof sheets and black adhesive and more.
In a village like Maids Moreton, we test materials on barns, stables and outbuildings as well as homes, since cement sheeting was widely used. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Maids Moreton questions
Do you cover Maids Moreton from London?
We cover Maids Moreton, about 52 miles from central London.
Do you cover small places like Maids Moreton?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Do you do air testing?
Air testing for clearance is done by an independent UKAS-accredited analyst. We’ll tell you whether you need it.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Do you test textured ceilings?
Yes, we test textured coatings. Older coatings can contain a small amount of asbestos.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What happens if the test is positive?
We will explain your options, which depend on the material, its condition and your plans: leave it, cover it or have it removed.
What it might be made of
Cement sheets
Garage and shed roofs are often tested. A test confirms what the sheet is made of.
Roof felt and mastics
We can test felt before a flat roof is replaced.
Weighing up your options
How many samples? Different materials, and sometimes the same material in different places, need separate samples. Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

- Clearance air testing after licensed work is done by an independent UKAS-accredited analyst
