What is Asbestos Testing?
Asbestos testing involves taking a small sample of a suspect material and sending it to a specialist laboratory for microscopic analysis. The lab will identify whether asbestos fibres are present, what type of asbestos it is (chrysotile, amosite, crocidolite, etc.), and what percentage of the material is asbestos.
You can’t tell if something contains asbestos just by looking at it. Two pieces of material that look identical may have completely different compositions. Proper asbestos testing Wolverhampton is the only reliable way to know for sure.

Our Asbestos Testing Process
Initial Contact
When you get in touch for asbestos testing Wolverhampton, we ask about the material you’re concerned about – what it looks like, where it is, and what you’re planning to do. Photos help, but they’re not essential.
Sample Collection
