Bracknell is a Berkshire New Town, largely built from the 1950s to 1970s with system-built estates, a redeveloped town centre and surrounding business parks. That New Town construction era used asbestos insulating board, cement cladding and lagging heavily, and homes and commercial units across the town commonly contain artex and asbestos cement roofing.

Asbestos Testing & Air Monitoring in Bracknell: FAQs
Why is asbestos common in Bracknell New Town buildings?
Bracknell was largely built in the 1950s-70s, the peak era for asbestos insulating board, cement cladding and lagging. Many estates and commercial units still contain these materials, so a survey before refurbishment is strongly advised.
Can you survey offices and business parks in Bracknell?
Yes — we carry out management and refurbishment surveys across Bracknell's business parks and town-centre offices, with a duty-to-manage register and priority risk scores that satisfy the HSE.
How quickly can I find out if a material contains asbestos?
Standard bulk sample analysis is returned within 24 hours, and same-day analysis is available for urgent cases. You receive a UKAS-accredited certificate stating the fibre type, or confirming none is present.
What is an air test for and when do I need one?
Air testing measures the concentration of asbestos fibres in the air. It is used for reassurance after disturbance, for background monitoring, and for the mandatory clearance test after licensed removal before a space can be reoccupied.
