Where Asbestos is Commonly Found in Homes
Asbestos was widely used in residential construction for its durability and fire-resistant properties. It can still be present in many homes across the UK, particularly those built before 2000.
In many cases, asbestos is not dangerous if left undisturbed. However, DIY work, renovations, or damage to materials can release harmful fibres.
When Do You Need an Asbestos Survey?
Before Renovation or DIY Work
A refurbishment asbestos survey ensures any asbestos-containing materials are identified before work begins, helping you avoid health risks and costly delays.
Buying or Selling a Property
Landlords & Letting Properties
Landlords have a responsibility to manage asbestos risks in communal areas of residential buildings, such as Hallways and stairwells, Basements and service areas, Roof spaces and shared facilities. We help landlords remain compliant and protect tenants.
