Asbestos services matched to local property and project types
Stoke-on-Trent combines extensive Victorian and Edwardian housing, post-war estates, schools, healthcare buildings, shops and offices with a distinctive legacy of pottery, engineering and manufacturing property. Former factories and works may also sit within larger regeneration or brownfield schemes.
Homes & residential property
Traditional terraces, post-war homes, flats, garages and converted buildings may contain textured coatings, asbestos cement, floor products, boards and service materials installed during different refurbishment periods.
Commercial, healthcare & education
Offices, shops, schools, colleges, healthcare premises and managed buildings need clear asbestos information that maintenance teams and contractors can use before disturbing building fabric.
Industry & redevelopment
Former pottery works, engineering premises, warehouses, workshops and brownfield land may require coordinated survey, removal, analytical and contaminated-land support.

What to send for an accurate written scope
Good information allows the team to identify the correct starting point and reduces assumptions when preparing the quotation.
Not sure which service you need?
Tell ASM what building you manage, what material has been found or what work is planned. The team can identify whether the correct starting point is a Management Survey, Refurbishment Survey, Demolition Survey, targeted sampling, reinspection, laboratory testing, asbestos management support, air monitoring, soils support or a removal quotation.
Regional delivery
Stoke and North Staffordshire support through ASM's existing office network
Stoke-on-Trent is a regional ASM service area rather than a separate physical office or accredited laboratory. Projects can be coordinated through ASM's Birmingham office with Manchester and national technical support where appropriate.
Bulk asbestos analysis is undertaken at ASM's accredited Sunderland Head Office laboratory within the applicable UKAS testing scope.

Frequently asked questions
Stoke-on-Trent asbestos services FAQs
Which asbestos service should I start with?
A Management Survey normally supports occupation and routine maintenance. A Refurbishment Survey is used before intrusive alterations and a Demolition Survey before demolition. Targeted sampling may suit a single defined suspect material.
Does ASM have an asbestos laboratory in Stoke-on-Trent?
No. ASM's accredited bulk-analysis laboratory is at Sunderland Head Office. Stoke is served through ASM's regional delivery network.
Can ASM support a project after asbestos is identified?
Yes. Depending on the project, follow-on support can include management advice, removal, air monitoring, clearance, further surveying or contaminated-land services.
Do you cover areas outside Stoke city itself?
Yes. Attendance can be arranged across Newcastle-under-Lyme, Kidsgrove, Stone, Leek and wider North Staffordshire subject to scope and availability.
Are ASM surveys and testing UKAS accredited?
ASM holds UKAS accreditation number 32982 for defined inspection activities to ISO/IEC 17020 and defined testing activities to ISO/IEC 17025. The current UKAS schedules define the precise scope and locations.
