Common questions in Parslow's Hillock
Do you cover small places like Parslow's Hillock?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work on properties in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you work in Parslow's Hillock?
Yes, Parslow's Hillock is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Can you test the air for asbestos?
Clearance air testing after licensed removal must be done by an independent analyst accredited by UKAS. Ask us and we’ll explain what applies to your job.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
How many samples will I need?
Generally one for each different material, with extra where the same material appears in different places. We’ll recommend a number once we know more.

For businesses and landlords in Parslow's Hillock
If your business premises in Parslow's Hillock were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

What’s included, and what isn’t
We are upfront about what’s included:
- Clearance testing is a separate, independent job
- A result tells you what the material is, not how to remove it
- We cannot confirm asbestos from a photo
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

- Water tanks
- Floor tiles
- Soffit boards
- Roof felt
- Flue pipes

After we’ve finished in Parslow's Hillock
Keep the results with your property records, as they’re useful when you sell or carry out more work.
Keeping things safe:
- Keep the results for future work or a sale
- Make the area easy to reach
- Group several materials into one visit
- Leave the material undisturbed until we’ve sampled it
Don’ts
Get the result before work is booked, so there’s no delay later.
Leave the material alone until the result is back.
Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
