Asbestos testing near Warfield Park

We often deal with flue pipes, panels behind heaters and black adhesive, and people typically contact us about panels behind old heaters and a material damaged during DIY.
In a smaller place like Warfield Park, testing is often for a garage roof, a shed or an old outbuilding, as well as ceilings and floors in the house. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

FAQs for Warfield Park
Is asbestos common in Warfield Park homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Warfield Park can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Warfield Park from London?
Warfield Park is about 27 miles from central London, well within our area.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
Can you tell if it’s asbestos by looking?
Not reliably by eye: it takes laboratory analysis of a sample. We sample it with controls and send it to an accredited laboratory.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
What happens if the test is positive?
We’ll explain your options, which depend on the material, its condition and your plans: leaving it, covering it or removing it.
Can I do it myself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
What happens next
If asbestos is found, we will explain your options: leave and manage it, cover it, or remove it before work.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Do not touch it before we arrive
- Ask us if you are unsure whether you need a test or a survey
- Test everything you’re worried about at once
- Clear access to the area
Things not to do
Don’t break off a piece to test yourself.
Until you have the result, don’t drill, sand, scrape or cut the material.
