Asbestos in Crawley
Crawley was designated a new town in 1947 and grew rapidly alongside Gatwick Airport, built as a series of self-contained neighbourhoods around an older market core. Much of its housing dates from the 1950s to 70s and used asbestos insulating board, cement soffits, textured coatings and garage roofs. The original Three Bridges and Ifield areas add further period housing with asbestos materials.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Crawley properties safe the right way — identified, proven in the lab, and either contained or removed with paperwork that satisfies lenders, buyers and the HSE.

Asbestos Testing & Air Monitoring in Crawley: FAQs
Could my Crawley new-town home contain asbestos?
Yes — much of Crawley's housing was built between the 1950s and 70s, when asbestos insulating board, cement soffits and textured coatings were widely used. A survey before any renovation confirms exactly what your specific property holds.
Do you survey commercial premises near Gatwick in Crawley?
We do. Older offices, warehouses and industrial units around Crawley and Gatwick often contain asbestos in ceiling tiles, lagging and floor finishes, and all non-domestic premises need a management survey by law. We provide a full register and plan.
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.
