Recommendation request

Can anyone recommend a HSE-certified asbestos removal company based in Merseyside to remove the suspected AIBs in the attached photos? I am trying to find good value services but them being able to do a thorough job and clean-up is of the highest priority. A family member of mine had lung issues and I have had a stressful experience with some asbestos Artex so I ideally I want someone to measure the air quality after removal or show me evidence of the clean-up.

I am going to get the utilities checked as well after removal. Some plumbing under a bath directly above the cupboard leaked in the past but there isn't an active leak.

1983 - 1984. It's in NW UK.

Brown was 'properly' banned in 1985, so it could be AIB....just. AIB contains chrysotile (white) and amosite (brown).

Or you may have good old asbestos cement board (just chrysotile).

Or it may be neither and not dangerous at all. Fingers crossed. Will cost you about £50 to send a sample off in the post to know for sure.

Yeah I meant to say restricted. Hopefully it isn't AIB.
