Asbestos testing for Trumps Green properties
Sampling is done carefully: the material is damped, a small piece removed, sealed in a bag and the sample point sealed. That is safer than breaking off a piece yourself. Typical jobs include panels behind old heaters and old floor tiles before a new floor goes down, including garage roof sheets, textured ceilings and panels behind heaters.
Village homes in towns and villages like Trumps Green often mix old and newer materials, so testing each one is the only way to be sure. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

What’s included, and what is not
It’s worth knowing what asbestos testing does and does not cover:
- A test only covers the materials sampled, so it is not a substitute for a survey before major work
- A result tells you what the material is, not how to remove it
- Clearance testing is a separate, independent job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
