Your Local Asbestos Specialists in Reading

Reading, in Berkshire, has a building stock shaped by its Victorian growth and its later expansion as a commercial centre. Victorian terraces linked to its brewing and biscuit-making heritage sit alongside inter-war and post-war housing, office blocks and business parks. Much of this predates the asbestos ban, so asbestos-containing materials can be found in homes, flats and workplaces across the town, usually causing no problem until they are disturbed.

Across Reading and the surrounding Berkshire area we arrange asbestos removal, surveys, testing, disposal, encapsulation and management, carried out by the specialist contractors we work with and reaching Wokingham, Bracknell, Henley-on-Thames, Newbury and nearby Basingstoke. Whether you are renovating an older home, managing let property, or refurbishing commercial premises, treat anything you suspect carefully. Sight alone will never confirm asbestos, so have suspect materials surveyed or laboratory-tested before any work begins.

We cover the RG postcode area across Reading, home to around 174,000 people, and the surrounding towns.

Asbestos in Reading: Common Questions

Do you provide asbestos services in Reading?
Yes. We arrange asbestos removal, surveys, testing, disposal, encapsulation and management across Reading and the wider Berkshire area, for homeowners, landlords and businesses, carried out by the specialist contractors we work with. Every job starts with a free, no-obligation quote, and any suspect material is confirmed by a professional survey or an accredited laboratory test.
Is disturbed asbestos dangerous?
Yes. Asbestos is generally low-risk while it's intact and left alone, but disturbing it is where the danger lies. Drilling, cutting, sanding or breaking it releases microscopic fibres that are harmful when breathed in. If you think a material contains asbestos, leave it be and arrange a professional survey or removal before any work starts.
How much does asbestos removal cost?
There's no single flat rate. The cost depends on the type of material, how much there is, where it sits and how easy it is to reach, so a small garage roof is very different from licensed insulation removal. That's why we give you a clear, no-obligation quote before any work starts, once the material has been assessed.
Which areas of the UK do you cover?
We cover towns and cities right across the UK, from major cities like London, Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds to the smaller towns in between. Enter your town or postcode when you get in touch and we'll arrange a free, no-obligation quote in your area.
Does my property contain asbestos?
If your property was built or refurbished before the year 2000, it may well contain asbestos, which wasn't fully banned in the UK until 1999. It commonly turns up in roofing sheets, textured coatings like Artex, floor tiles, pipe lagging and insulation board. The only reliable way to know for certain is a professional survey.
