About our asbestos testing in Nyton
Testing is quick to arrange and gives a definite answer. You’ll learn whether it contains asbestos and what kind, and we will explain your options. Typical materials include black adhesive, soffit boards and panels behind heaters, and typical jobs are single materials in rented homes between tenancies and debris found after DIY.
In a village like Nyton, we test materials on barns, stables and outbuildings as well as homes, where cement sheet roofs and cladding were often used. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

After we have finished in Nyton
The sample point is sealed when we take the sample, so it’s safe while you wait.
After we’ve finished:
- Clear access to the area
- Leave the material undisturbed until we have sampled it
- Test everything you’re worried about at once
- Keep the results for future work or a sale
Avoid these
Please do not take your own sample.
Get the result before work is booked, so there’s no delay later.
Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What affects the price in Nyton
We base our quote on:
- How many different materials need sampling
- Parking and access charges
- Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
- What the material is and its state
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

What it might be made of
Roof felt and mastics
Some bitumen products contain asbestos.
Floor tiles and adhesive
You may find tiles under carpet or laminate; test them before they come up.
Limits to be aware of
A few things to be aware of:
- If the material is in a hard-to-reach place, access may need planning
- Testing does not look for anything else, so it is not a substitute for a survey before major work
- Clearance testing is a separate, independent job
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Nyton questions
Do you come out to small villages like Nyton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work near Barnham station?
Yes. Barnham station is about 1.6 miles south-east of Nyton, and we cover both.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is usually needed.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Step by step
We start by agreeing exactly what to sample, then sample each material with controls to limit dust. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we’ll do before we start.
- Describe the material and send a picture
- We agree how many samples are needed and send a quote
- We take each sample with wetting and controls, and seal it
- An accredited laboratory carries out the analysis
- You get the written result, and we explain what it means
How to prepare
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
