Asbestos testing in CT3: what to expect
Before small jobs in CT3, people often test first: ceilings, floors, garage roofs and soffits are typical. Typical materials include panels behind heaters, garage roof sheets and textured ceilings, and typical jobs are porch canopies and floor tiles and black adhesive.
Sampling a typical material takes a short time once we’re set up.
- Let us know which materials you are worried about
- We confirm the number of samples and the price
- A surveyor visits and samples each material, sealing the sample points
- The samples are logged and sent to an accredited laboratory
- The written results come back to you, and we explain them
Prices in CT3

What you get
- Across London and the South East
- Clear notes on any areas not reached
- Condition ratings, not just a list
- Homes, rented property and workplaces

Near you in Aylesham
In Aylesham, that can mean a property near St Peter and Aylesham Primary School. The nearest railway station is close to the centre of Aylesham: Aylesham station. Well-known places in the area include St Martins Hospital (5.2 miles north-west).
Asbestos testing across CT3
In CT3, a quick test before a small job is common, in towns and villages alike. Around 21 places in CT3 are close to the coast, so outdoor roof work there is planned around the wind.
Aylesham: At a school like Aylesham Primary School, the duty holder keeps asbestos records, which staff and parents can ask about. For an older property in Aylesham, whether near St Peter or not, test any suspect materials before renovation.
What happens next
A positive result isn’t a reason to panic: leave and manage it, cover it, or remove it before work.
- Not sure between a test and a survey? Ask
- Send photos of the material and where it is
- Group several materials into one visit
- File the result with your property paperwork
Please don’t take your own sample; tell us where it is and we will sample it safely.
Until you have the result, don’t drill, sand, scrape or cut the material.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles and adhesive
Old tiles and black adhesive can be tested separately, because results can differ.
Boards and panels
Some boards are insulating board, which is higher risk. A test tells you which.
Options to consider in CT3
One sample or several? Each different material needs its own sample, and sometimes tiles and adhesive or coatings in different rooms need separate samples.
Before you book anyone
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- What you’ll receive in writing
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- The number of samples
Questions from CT3
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.
Do I need more than one sample?
Generally one for each different material, sometimes more. We’ll recommend a number once we know more.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
