What are the dangers of leaving asbestos in your Wirral property?
If asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are left alone, they generally pose minimal threat to human health.
It’s only when such materials are damaged or disturbed that they emit microscopic fibres into the atmosphere that, when inhaled, cause damage to the lungs and breathing difficulty.
Fatal diseases often associated with asbestos exposure include lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma, to name just a few.
Therefore, if you suspect asbestos is on your property, arrange an asbestos survey in the Wirral. We’ll send one of our experts out to perform an in-depth inspection of your site – checking for potential asbestos and obtaining samples where necessary.
If the results from the survey confirm the presence of ACMs, we can advise on the next steps to take (e.g. removal and disposal or management).

Asbestos testing Wirral
DIY testing kits often include everything you need to obtain samples and send them off for laboratory analysis, but asbestos testing is typically a job best left to the experts.
At DACT, we have provided asbestos testing Wirral-wide for over a decade and are fully equipped with the appropriate tools and technology to collect samples without disturbing the fibres.
All samples are carefully placed into bags and sent to our UKAS-accredited laboratory, where they’ll be tested for asbestos.
How does asbestos testing work?
Our asbestos testing service starts with an initial consultation and ends with a detailed report including our top recommendations.
- Consultation – When you get in touch with DACT, we’ll discuss your asbestos-related concerns in detail before arranging a suitable time to visit your premises.
- Inspection – We’ll arrive on time and perform a risk assessment and a thorough inspection to locate all ACMs on your site.
- Sampling – Equipped with the latest tools and personal protective equipment (PPE), we’ll take samples of the suspect material and send them to be analysed at the laboratory.
- Analysis – The samples taken will be tested to confirm or deny the presence of ACMs – with results available in just a few days.
- Reporting – We’ll provide a detailed report outlining the type, quantity, and condition of each sample – plus advice on how to manage asbestos, either through remedial work or professional removal.

Who needs asbestos removal in Wirral?
Before it was banned in the late 1990s, asbestos was commonly used in construction for everything from insulation and boilers to roof sheets and flooring.
It can still be found in many properties built before 2000.
As such, DACT provides asbestos removal services for:
– Landlords
– Property owners
– Property buyers
– Property sellers
– Contractors
Our removalist team can help landlords to ensure the safety of their tenants while complying with legalities.
We can help home and business owners prepare for renovation and demolition work, ensuring all ACMs are removed before work commences. We also offer our services to contractors who are responsible for asbestos – making sure work is carried out in the safest way.
A property seller must provide full disclosure if asbestos is present in their property, which can have a considerable effect on the sale and asking price. However, removing all traces of such materials will give buyers peace of mind that the property is safe – boosting your chances of selling.
Cost of asbestos removal in Wirral with DACT
As with most things, the cost of asbestos removal in the Wirral can vary depending on numerous factors.
Typically, if there is a large presence of ACMs in your home or business, it will take us longer to remove them – meaning you’ll pay more to cover labour costs.
If our removalists require specialist tools or additional safety measures to minimise exposure, this can also increase the overall price.
When quoting for jobs, we also consider the accessibility of your premises. If you’re keen to keep the costs low, making sure your property is unoccupied and easy to access will allow our removalists to work faster – ultimately saving you money on labour.
