If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

Choosing the right option
A lab result is far more reliable than guessing from photos. We can tell you whether something looks like it could contain asbestos, but only a lab can confirm it. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
Why choose us
- Condition ratings, not just a list
- Houses, flats and business premises
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
- The right survey for your plans

FAQs for Odiham
Do you cover Odiham and the area around Hook station?
Yes. Hook station is about 2.1 miles north-west of Odiham, and we cover both.
Could my house in Odiham contain asbestos?
If your home in Odiham was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
How can I get a price?
Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Can I take a sample myself?
Sampling is best left to a competent person, according to HSE, as it means disturbing the material. We can do it for you.

Prices and what affects them
The price of asbestos testing depends mainly on:
- Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
- Parking and access charges
- The building’s size and layout
- The type of material and its condition
Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
After we’ve finished in Odiham
If asbestos is found, we’ll explain your options: leave and manage it, cover it, or remove it before work.
Keeping things safe:
- Make the area easy to reach
- Let us know what you want to do next
- Tell us if there is adhesive under tiles
- Test everything you’re worried about at once
What to avoid
Leave the material alone until the result is back.
Until you have the result, don’t drill, sand, scrape or cut the material.
Good to know
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- We can’t confirm asbestos from a photo
- Identifying the material is the first step; removal is planned separately
- Clearance testing is a separate, independent job
