What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a harmful material that was widely used in building construction throughout the 20th century due to its heat resistance and durability. However, disturbing asbestos fibres can release harmful particles into the air, which, when inhaled, can lead to severe health conditions such as lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma. These diseases are potentially fatal, making asbestos testing and removal critical for anyone living or working in an older building.
If you're considering buying, renovating, or working in a property built before the year 2000, there may be a risk of asbestos. The safest course of action is to have a professional asbestos inspection to identify any potential hazards.
What Does Asbestos Testing Involve?
Asbestos testing typically involves taking either single or bulk samples from any suspected asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in your property. These samples are then sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory where they are carefully analysed for asbestos fibres. The testing process will confirm whether asbestos is present, what type it is (such as white asbestos, brown asbestos, or blue asbestos), or if no asbestos is detected (NAD).
We aim to provide your results within 24-48 hours, ensuring a fast and accurate assessment of your property's safety. If you’re looking for an asbestos test near you, don’t hesitate to contact our team in Farnborough today. We’ll take care of everything, from testing to reporting.

Types of asbestos include:
Asbestos was commonly used in a wide range of building materials, including ceiling tiles, textured coatings, cement, sprayed coatings, insulation, and the materials used in walls and pipes. When these materials are disturbed, asbestos fibres can become airborne, posing a serious health risk. If you suspect that your property may contain asbestos, it’s essential to arrange an asbestos test as soon as possible to ensure the safety of those living or working in the building.
