Asbestos surveys in Slough: every type of asbestos survey covered
Experienced asbestos surveyors in Slough, Eton Wick and nearby areas
Finding hidden asbestos in your building doesn't have to be stressful. The UK banned asbestos in 1999, yet many properties across Slough, from Victorian terraces in Upton and Chalvey to busy commercial premises around the High Street, may still contain it without anyone knowing.
That risk is especially relevant given Slough's mix of buildings. Older Victorian and Edwardian homes sit alongside post-war housing estates in Britwell and Cippenham, the vast Slough Trading Estate, and ongoing town centre redevelopment, so asbestos can turn up almost anywhere.
When asbestos is disturbed through general deterioration, home improvements, or commercial refits, its tiny fibres can cause serious lung damage.
If you think asbestos may be present in your home or business premises, professional testing is vital. We carry out full residential and commercial asbestos surveys so you know exactly where you stand.

Frequently asked questions
Are older properties in Slough likely to contain asbestos?
Many are. Slough has a large number of Victorian and interwar homes, as well as post-war estates and industrial buildings put up between the 1950s and 1980s, when asbestos use was at its peak. It is commonly found in garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and industrial roof sheeting. A survey or sampling is the only way to be sure.
Do businesses on the Slough Trading Estate need asbestos surveys?
If your premises were built or refurbished before 2000, the duty holder must manage any asbestos present, which usually means having an up-to-date management survey and asbestos register. Many older units on the estate have asbestos cement roofs and cladding, so regular re-inspections are also advisable. An R&D survey is needed before any significant refit or demolition.
