Asbestos survey in Belmont
There are two main types of survey, set out in HSE’s guide HSG264. A management survey is for a building in normal use; a refurbishment and demolition survey is for before building work. We’ll help you choose the right one for your survey in Belmont. Typical materials include floor tiles, soffits and garage roofs, and people usually contact us about refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms and contractors’ requests for an asbestos report.
Belmont has a mix of older and newer homes, and any built or altered before 2000 can contain asbestos. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

Where asbestos turns up
Older buildings have often been altered many times, so asbestos may be in later alterations as much as the original structure, so a survey checks the whole scope, not just obvious spots.
These are some of the things we deal with in Belmont:
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Community buildings and halls
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Rented homes due for maintenance
Got an older property in Belmont, close to Church of St John or further out? A refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected should come first.
What to look for in a quote
- The number of samples
- The report contents
- If the price includes VAT
- The scope of the job, in writing
Limits to be aware of
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Questions from Belmont
Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you work near Belmont station?
Yes. Belmont station is close to the centre of Belmont, and we cover the whole area.
Do you work in Belmont?
Yes, Belmont is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Belmont?
If the building is in normal use and you need to manage what’s there, a management survey. If you are about to refurbish or demolish, a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected. Tell us your plans and we will advise.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.

A survey or a sample test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey covers everything in scope, including materials nobody had spotted. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Why us?
- Written quotes that say what’s included
- Each material’s condition recorded
- Inaccessible areas listed clearly
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond

Materials, one by one
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, generally bound in the bitumen.
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, so a lab result is essential.
How we work
In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. While we work, the area stays out of bounds.
- Start by telling us about the property and your plans
- We recommend a survey type and quote for the agreed scope
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if something’s broken
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Keep children and pets away on the day

Doing it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
