Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Do I need an asbestos survey before removal?
A: Yes — Ideally you should always get a survey. This will identify the asbestos type, condition and risk. Licensed removal cannot start without it.

Q: Can some asbestos be left in situ?
A: Materials that are intact in good condition and unlikely to be disturbed may be managed in situ rather than removed, as per UK law and guidance.

Q: How quickly can I get a quote?
A: We aim to provide fast, no‑obligation cost estimates once you submit basic details about the property and asbestos concerns. Typically we will get costs back to you within 24 hours if not sooner.

Q: If you find asbestos on a survey am i at risk?

A: No not always. Just because asbestos is located it does not mean you are at risk or you have to do anything. Half the battle when dealing with asbestos is knowing where it is and how not to disturb it. Left undisturbed and in good condition asbestos can remain safely in situ.
