Our asbestos testing in RG29
We take each sample with controls to keep dust down: we wet the area, take a small piece, bag it and seal the sample point. It’s safer than DIY sampling. We often deal with soffit boards, black adhesive and textured ceilings, and typical jobs are lab results for contractors before they start and floor tiles and black adhesive.
We use the right protective equipment and keep people away while sampling, even for a single sample.

Where we test in RG29
Across RG29, homeowners and landlords test single materials before small jobs, from Odiham, North Warnborough and South Warnborough to its villages.
Odiham: For an older property in Odiham, whether near All Saints Church or not, a quick test before work is sensible. If you work at a school like Mayhill Junior School, ask the duty holder about the asbestos register.
What it might be made of
Boards and panels
Boards in boiler cupboards, behind heaters or as soffits can be asbestos insulating board. A test tells you which.
Textured coatings
A small sample of the coating is enough, from a discreet spot.
What it costs
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Material and condition
- The size of the job
- The size and age of the building
- How easy it is to reach
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
Helping us quote
A few photos can save a site visit:
- Where we could park
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- A rough size or measurement
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Where asbestos turns up
A test can stop you paying for removal you do not need, which saves time and money.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Garage roofs before replacement
- Tiles found under carpet
- Results builders ask for before work
- Something broken during building work
For landlords, agents and businesses
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
RG29: your questions answered
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
How do I get a quote?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do you work in RG29?
We do: our area includes RG29 and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
