About our asbestos testing in Wraysbury

Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, anyone analysing samples to identify asbestos must be accredited to ISO/IEC 17025. Our samples go to an accredited lab, and you get the written result. Typical jobs include something broken during building work and soffits and porch canopies before replacement, involving black adhesive, garage roof sheets and panels behind heaters.

In towns and villages like Wraysbury, we are often asked to test garage and shed roofs. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

  • How much sampling is needed

Photos that help

Photo tips:

  • A close-up from a safe distance
  • A rough size or measurement
  • The parking area
  • A wide shot showing where the material is

For businesses and landlords in Wraysbury

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Wraysbury must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

What it might be made of

Floor tiles and adhesive

We test tiles and adhesive separately where needed, because results can differ.

Roof felt and mastics

Older bitumen felts and mastics sometimes contain asbestos.

Your options compared

Home testing kits are available, but you have to disturb the material yourself to use one. HSE advises that a competent person takes samples. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

Why us?

  • Practical recommendations
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Clear advice on your options

Wraysbury questions

Do you cover Wraysbury and the area around Sunnymeads station?

Yes, we cover Wraysbury and the area towards Sunnymeads station, about 0.8 miles north.

Do you cover Wraysbury from London?

Wraysbury is about 20 miles from central London, well within our area.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Should I use a home testing kit?

HSE’s advice is that a competent person should take samples, because the material has to be disturbed. We can do it for you.

What happens if the test is positive?

A positive result tells you the type of asbestos found. From there, we will talk through leaving it, covering it or removing it.

What paperwork will I get?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

How dangerous is asbestos?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

What happens

We wear suitable protective equipment and keep the work area clear, even for a single sample. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere.

  1. Send us photos of the material
  2. We confirm a test is the right choice, rather than a survey
  3. We visit and take the samples
  4. The lab tests the samples
  5. We explain what the result means for your plans

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
  • Let us know if something’s broken
  • Dig out previous surveys

DIY and asbestos

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

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.

What we do and do not cover

The usual limits are:

  • Testing doesn’t look for anything else, so it isn’t a substitute for a survey before major work
  • Clearance testing is a separate, independent job
  • A result tells you what the material is, not how to remove it

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

What we deal with

  • Roof felt
  • Bitumen adhesive
  • Soffit boards
  • Garage roof sheets
  • Flue pipes
  • Pipe lagging
  • Water tanks
  • Floor tiles
  • Artex and textured ceilings
  • Panels behind heaters
