About our asbestos testing in Peasmarsh
The regulations require asbestos analysis to be done by an accredited laboratory. Our samples go to an accredited lab, and you get the written result. People often contact us about single materials in rented homes between tenancies and textured ceilings before a renovation, including black adhesive, flue pipes and soffit boards.
In a village like Peasmarsh, we test materials on barns, stables and outbuildings as well as homes, since cement sheeting was widely used. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Every quote reflects:
- Travel and parking

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Photos that help

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Common questions in Peasmarsh
Do you cover small places like Peasmarsh?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Peasmarsh and the area around Shalford station?
Yes, we cover Peasmarsh and the area towards Shalford station, about 0.8 miles north-east.
My sample contains asbestos. What now?
Your options depend on what it is, its condition and what work you are planning: leave it, cover it or have it removed.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Which option is right?
Air tests aren’t the same as material tests. After licensed work, an independent UKAS-accredited analyst carries out clearance testing. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations

Where asbestos turns up
Most exposure happens when someone disturbs a material without knowing it contains asbestos. Testing first avoids that.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to tests:
- Porch canopies
- Lab results for contractors before they start
- Tiles found under carpet
- Garage and shed roofs before removal or repair
For older homes anywhere in Peasmarsh, from near St Michael outwards, test any suspect materials before renovation.
Questions to ask before booking
