FAQs for Landport
Do you work near Portsmouth & Southsea station?
Yes, we cover Landport, including the streets around Portsmouth & Southsea station.
Do you cover Landport from London?
Landport is about 65 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
