Asbestos testing in UB4: what to expect
Testing is quick to arrange and gives a definite answer. The result shows whether asbestos was found and, if so, which type, and we will explain your options. We often deal with floor tiles, black adhesive and garage roof sheets, and typical jobs are one-off checks in rented property and something broken during building work.
On the day, we confirm which materials to sample and where, then take each sample with the area damped and the point sealed afterwards.
- Let us know which materials you are worried about
- We confirm the number of samples and the price
- We visit, take the samples and seal each point
- The samples are logged and sent to an accredited laboratory
- You get the results, and we talk you through them

For landlords, agents and businesses
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Where asbestos turns up
Testing can show a material doesn’t contain asbestos at all, so work can carry on normally.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Porch canopies
- Artex ceilings before plastering, sanding or drilling
- Something broken during building work
- Single materials in rented homes between tenancies
Good to know
Worth knowing before you book:
- Photos can’t confirm asbestos; only a lab can
- A result tells you what the material is, not how to remove it
- Testing does not look for anything else, so it isn’t a substitute for a survey before major work
How we price asbestos testing
The cost depends on:
- How much sampling is needed
- How easy it is to reach
- Location, parking and any London charges
- What the material is and its state
Every quote says whether VAT is included.
What to photograph
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- A photo of the whole area
- Street parking nearby
- How we’d reach it

UB4 questions
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do you work in UB4?
Yes, we do: our area includes UB4 and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Do I need more than one sample?
Normally one for each different material, sometimes more. We will recommend a number once we know more.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
