## Asbestos Management for Caernarfon and the Surrounding Villages

Caernarfon&#x27;s streets inside the town walls are a mix of narrow shop frontages and upper-floor flats, many altered multiple times since Victorian days. Just outside the walls, slate-built cottages and later terraces climb the hill towards Twthill, while newer housing spreads out towards Bontnewydd and Llanrug. This range of ages means that asbestos, where it exists, tends to date from renovation rather than original construction, and spotting it requires knowing which decade a particular alteration belongs to.

In the older terraces common throughout Caernarfon, asbestos was often introduced during mid-20th-century modernisations. We frequently identify asbestos-containing materials in textured coatings, vinyl floor tiles, and fire-rated wallboards. For homeowners planning renovations or for landlords managing rental properties in areas like Bontnewydd or Llanrug, a professional asbestos survey is an essential step in ensuring the safety of tenants and tradespeople.

Caernarfon&#x27;s slate heritage shows up in more than just roofing. Many of the older stone cottages around the harbour and up towards Twthill had asbestos cement flashing or guttering fitted during repairs over the decades, often tucked in alongside the original slate in a way that&#x27;s easy to miss without a close inspection. We pay particular attention to these junctions between old and newer materials when surveying period properties in the town.

The harbour area and the smaller industrial yards that once served the slate trade still have a scattering of older sheds and stores, some of which carry asbestos cement roofing from their working years. Business owners taking on these units for storage or small workshops often need a management survey before insurance or a change of use can be arranged, and we provide that assessment along with practical advice on what, if anything, needs addressing.

Caernarfon&#x27;s role as a market town for the surrounding countryside means we also see a fair amount of agricultural work, from smallholdings near Waunfawr to larger farms around Groeslon. Older farm buildings in this area commonly used asbestos cement sheeting for barns and machinery stores, and a cracked or weathered sheet on an exposed hillside site tends to deteriorate faster than the same material in a sheltered town garden.

Caernarfon&#x27;s role as a regional hub mean that many commercial properties also require careful asbestos management. We work with business owners to develop robust asbestos management plans, helping them meet their legal obligations. Our approach is grounded in local knowledge and a commitment to technical excellence, ensuring that Caernarfon&#x27;s property stock is managed safely and professionally.

Evergreen Group and its trusted subcontractors handle every stage of a Caernarfon project personally, from the first phone call through to the final paperwork. We are not a large call-centre operation; you deal with the same person throughout, which matters when a job involves a listed building or a sensitive family home.
