If you suspect a material in your Selby home contains asbestos, professional testing is the only definitive way to confirm its presence. Our testing and sampling service is fast, safe, and accurate, designed to give you clarity without delay. Our trained surveyors will carefully and safely collect samples from any suspect materials within your property. Common items we test in Selby homes include: Artex and other textured coatings on ceilings and walls, cement sheets used for garage roofs and sheds, various ceiling and floor tiles (including vinyl), soffits, fascias, and guttering, pipe lagging and insulation boards, bitumen adhesives and toilet cisterns. Each collected sample is then sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for meticulous analysis. You will receive a formal certificate confirming the presence or absence of asbestos fibres, enabling you to make informed decisions about your property’s safety. Avoid disturbing any suspect materials yourself; let our experts handle it safely.

Understanding the extent and condition of asbestos in your home is crucial for effective management. While primarily a commercial requirement, tailored asbestos surveys are invaluable for homeowners in Selby, especially when planning renovations or purchasing a property. We offer specialised surveys to meet your specific needs: Pre-Purchase Asbestos Surveys: An essential check for those buying a home in Selby or the surrounding areas. This survey identifies any potential asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) before you commit to purchase. Knowing about asbestos upfront allows you to make an informed decision, negotiate effectively, and budget for any necessary remedial work, saving you from unexpected future costs and health risks. Asbestos Management Surveys: Although more commonly associated with commercial properties, a tailored management-style survey can be beneficial for homeowners planning significant alterations. It identifies and assesses accessible ACMs, providing a clear register for future reference and peace of mind during any work. This helps you understand where asbestos may be present and how it should be safely managed if disturbed.
