Asbestos help in Mimbridge
Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Asbestos testing for Mimbridge properties
If you’ve already disturbed a material during DIY in Mimbridge, stop and keep people away from it. Testing a sample tells you what you’re dealing with, and what to do next. We often deal with soffit boards, panels behind heaters and floor tiles, and typical jobs are lab results for contractors before they start and Artex before downlights or rewiring.
Rural properties near Mimbridge may have materials of very different ages, so each material needs its own test. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

Mimbridge: your questions answered
How far is Mimbridge from London?
We cover Mimbridge, about 24 miles from central London.
Do you cover Mimbridge and the area around Woking station?
Yes. Woking station is about 1.8 miles south-east of Mimbridge, and we cover both.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Do you cover Mimbridge?
Yes, Mimbridge is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

- What you’ll receive in writing
- How many samples are included
- Suitable insurance for the work
- Which areas and materials are covered
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If your business premises in Mimbridge were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Materials we deal with
Flues and tanks
Testing them before removal avoids surprises.
Boards and panels
Boards in boiler cupboards, behind heaters or as soffits can be asbestos insulating board. A test tells you which.
What it costs
The price of asbestos testing depends mainly on:
- How easy it is to reach
- Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
- The type of material and its condition
- The number of materials to sample
Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
