Working in Oldham’s older buildings? Assume asbestos until proven otherwise

By the Innov8 UK Group team
Mills, terraces and between-the-wars semis: what we routinely find across Oldham’s OL postcodes, and the £125 test that settles any material before work starts.

Few towns wear their industrial history like Oldham. The mills, the tightly-packed terraces, the between-the-wars semis — built and refitted right through the asbestos decades. In our work across the OL postcodes we routinely find Artex ceilings, cement garage roofs, insulation board around old fireplaces and airing cupboards, and lagging in former mill buildings now converted to units and storage.

None of that is a reason to worry — it’s a reason to check before you drill, strip or demolish. A £125 sample test settles any material before work starts, and for landlords and developers our mills & factories guide covers what turns up in converted industrial space.

One team, one responsibility — removal, testing and disposal across Oldham and Greater Manchester, with straightforward enquiries usually quoted within 24 hours.
