Core Services
Test, survey, remove, dispose, manage
Most jobs start with one of these four. Each page sets out the method, what the paperwork covers and the typical cost in Glasgow.
Asbestos Surveys
Management and refurbishment/demolition surveys carried out to HSG264, with targeted sampling and UKAS-accredited laboratory analysis. We identify the location, type and condition of asbestos-containing materials and give you a clear report with practical recommendations — the first, legally safest step before any works or property purchase.

Controlled removal of non-licensed and notifiable non-licensed (NNLW) asbestos — cement garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles and more. Every job runs under protected, sheeted conditions with wet suppression, Class H vacuums, full decontamination and certified disposal. If your material is licensable, we tell you straight and help you arrange the right contractor.
Learn moreCertified Disposal
Asbestos waste is special (hazardous) waste in Scotland. We handle the entire chain — UN-approved double bagging, sealed transport by a registered carrier, SEPA consignment notes and disposal at licensed facilities — so your legal duty of care is fully discharged and the paperwork is yours to keep.
Learn moreAsbestos Management
Asbestos management plans, registers and re-inspection surveys that keep duty holders compliant with Regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. We build and maintain the compliance for you — survey to register to plan to annual review — with audit-ready documentation throughout.

Common Questions
Asbestos services FAQs
What asbestos services do you offer in Glasgow?
Asbestos testing and sampling, management and refurbishment/demolition surveys, removal of non-licensed and NNLW materials — garage and shed roofs, cement roof sheets, soffits, Artex, floor tiles and water tanks — whole garage removal, collection and certified disposal, asbestos management plans and a 24-hour emergency line. Each has its own page above with the method and typical costs.
Do I need an asbestos test or a survey?
One suspect material and no wider building work means a test: a lab-analysed sample from around £25–£60. A whole building — a purchase, a renovation that breaks into the fabric, a let property or a non-domestic building with a duty to manage — means a survey. If you're unsure, describe the job on the phone and we'll tell you, including when the cheaper option is the right one.
Can you remove every type of asbestos?
We carry out non-licensed and notifiable non-licensed asbestos work — the categories that cover the majority of asbestos in Scottish homes and businesses, including cement roofs, Artex, floor tiles and more. Licensable materials legally require an HSE licensed contractor; if a survey identifies these, we say so straight away and help you arrange compliant removal.
Can you come out the same day?
We offer same-day asbestos surveys and sampling across Glasgow. Call early enough in the day and we'll get someone out to you before it ends — for a suspect ceiling, a garage roof or a material a contractor has just uncovered, that usually means a sample collected the same day and the lab result back within a few days. If your job genuinely can't be done that day, we'll tell you when it can rather than string you along.
