FAQs for Tylers Green
Do you cover Tylers Green from London?
Tylers Green is about 28 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Tylers Green contain asbestos?
Any home in Tylers Green built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Do you work in Tylers Green?
Yes, Tylers Green is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
How many samples will I need?
Normally one per material, with extra where the same material appears in different places. We will recommend a number once we know more.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
Doing it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Good to know
So you know what to expect:
- Clearance testing is a separate, independent job
- Identifying the material is the first step; removal is planned separately
- We cannot confirm asbestos from a photo
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Artex and textured ceilings
- Roof felt
- Water tanks
- Flue pipes
- Pipe lagging
- Floor tiles
- Panels behind heaters
- Garage roof sheets
- Soffit boards
- Bitumen adhesive
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles and adhesive
We test tiles and adhesive separately where needed, as one may contain asbestos when the other doesn’t.
Roof felt and mastics
We can test felt before a flat roof is replaced.

- The type of survey you need

Where asbestos turns up
Most exposure happens when someone disturbs a material without knowing it contains asbestos. Testing first avoids that.
Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Boards and panels before a kitchen or bathroom refit
- Soffits and porch canopies before replacement
- Results builders ask for before work
- Garage and shed roofs before removal or repair
At a school like Manor Farm Community Infant School, the duty holder keeps asbestos records, which staff and parents can ask about.
Questions to ask before you book
- What you will receive in writing
- The survey type, as defined in HSG264
