A ceiling gets drilled before anyone checks it. Staff worry about a riser near their desks. Each one needs the same thing: sampling, counting, and a certificate.
Sampling follows HSG248 methodology, and qualified analysts issue formal certificates that satisfy an employer’s duty, a household or a solicitor.
Certificates fit to show staff or insurers
Every result explained in plain English too
Every test is built around what the situation actually needs, from the first triage call through to a certified result explained in plain English.
Tell us what’s happened, or what’s worrying you, and we’ll specify the right test type, locations and timing, telling you honestly if testing isn’t actually what the situation calls for.
Calibrated pumps draw a measured volume of air at agreed points, with a setup that’s quiet, unobtrusive and suited to occupied spaces.
Fibre concentrations get determined and certified against the relevant limits, and urgent cases receive verbal results the same day, with the formal certificate following shortly after.
Every certificate arrives with a straightforward explanation, and where the results call for action, a fixed-price plan, whether that’s cleaning, remediation or removal, comes ready to instruct.
Disturbance events get priority attendance, because worry only grows the longer people wait for an answer
Qualified analysts produce certificates that stand entirely on their own, with nothing to second-guess
Fibre-per-millilitre figures get explained the way an actual person would say it, not just handed over as numbers
If the result isn't good news, the fix arrives in the same conversation, not as a separate follow-up
FAQS
Stop work in that area straight away, close it off, don’t clean or vacuum, and give us a call. We’ll advise you immediately, sample both the material and the air, and get you certified results with next steps, usually within a day or two. Acting fast is what turns most of these into small, well-documented incidents rather than something worse.
The concentration of airborne fibres within a known volume of air, expressed as fibres per millilitre and measured against the control limit and clearance indicator values. It tells you what the air is actually like right now, which is exactly what any reoccupation or reassurance decision should be based on.
Yes. Testing after another firm’s removal work is common practice and entirely sensible, since independence is really the whole point of it. You’ll get exactly the same certificate and explanation as any other client would.
Not at all, it’s often the cheapest sensible decision you can make. A certified result paired with a clear explanation resolves workplace anxiety far more effectively than any number of reassurance emails, and if the result ever isn’t fine, at least you found out on your own terms.
For priority cases, same-day verbal results with the certificate following shortly after. For routine reassurance and background monitoring, typically within a few working days. Tell us how much pressure you’re under and we’ll match the turnaround accordingly.
It depends on the number of sampling points involved and how urgent it is, a single-location reassurance test sits at the modest end, while multi-point or same-day work costs more, and we’re upfront about that from the start. Every test is fixed-priced before we attend, with the certificate and plain-English interpretation included rather than charged as extras. Where testing’s a legal requirement, such as four-stage clearance on licensed work, it’s already built into that job’s price.
Hardly at all. Calibrated pumps run quietly at agreed points for a set duration, while everyday life carries on around them. Most occupants notice the equipment sitting there, but not really the process itself.
You get the number itself, a plain-English explanation of what it actually means, and a fixed-price plan for the proportionate response, whether that’s controlled cleaning, remediation or removal, all in the same conversation. A concerning number with no plan attached is only half of what a proper service should offer.
Yes. Priority attendance covers the whole city, from offices in the centre to homes out in the districts, because the first few hours after a disturbance are exactly when calm, certified answers matter most.
