Asbestos Peace of Mind for Your Home
If you’re buying, selling, or renovating a home in the North of England, finding out that there might be asbestos can feel overwhelming. But here’s the reality: if your house was built before 2000, it’s very likely to contain some form of asbestos. If you would like to enquire about Asbestos Surveys for Domestic Properties.

The good news? In most cases, it isn’t a problem as long as you know where it is and how to handle it. We’re here to give you the clear answers you need to protect your family and your investment.
How We Can Help You
- Buying a New Home? (Home Buyer’s Survey): Standard RICS surveys often “flag” potential asbestos and tell you to get an expert. We’ll go in, inspect the areas of concern (such as garage roofs, floor tiles, or textured ceilings), and provide a report to help you negotiate the purchase price or move in with peace of mind.
- Planning a Renovation? (Pre-Work Check) Before you knock down that wall or pull up those old vinyl tiles, you need to be sure you aren’t releasing dangerous fibres into your living room. Our “Refurbishment Survey” is a comprehensive review of the areas you’re changing, so your builders can work safely.
- Individual Sample Testing: Just have one suspicious-looking panel in the shed or a “popcorn” ceiling in the hallway? You don’t always need a full survey. We can collect a single sample and have the results back from the lab in 24–48 hours.
Common Places We Find Asbestos in Northern Homes
Many houses in cities like Manchester, Sheffield, and Newcastle share similar building histories. We often find asbestos in:
- Artex & Textured Coatings: Very common on ceilings and walls from the 70s and 80s.
- Garage & Shed Roofs: Corrugated cement sheets.
- Floor Tiles: Hidden under modern carpets or laminate.
- Insulation: Around old boilers or inside airing cupboards.
Why Choose a Local Expert?
- No Jargon: We don’t use technical codes to confuse you. We explain what we found, where it is, and exactly what you should (or shouldn’t) do next.
- Fixed, Fair Pricing: We know home costs add up. We provide upfront, transparent quotes with no hidden “lab fees” later.
- Respect for Your Home: We treat your house like a home, not a building site. We’re clean, professional, and we make sure everything is sealed and safe before we leave.
