Asbestos survey in Beltinge
Plenty of older buildings, in Beltinge as anywhere, have little or no asbestos, and much of what’s found can stay. A survey tells you which situation you are in. People often contact us about schools, halls and community buildings and rented homes between tenancies, involving water tanks, pipe lagging and flues.
In places like Beltinge, surveys generally cover a house plus its garage and outbuildings, since older garages often have cement roofs. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

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. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so please keep children and pets away.
- Let us know the address and why you need a survey
- We check whether a management, refurbishment and demolition or pre-purchase survey fits, and confirm the areas
- Our surveyor carries out the inspection and sampling
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
How to prepare
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them

Beltinge: your questions answered
Do older homes in Beltinge have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Beltinge may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Beltinge and the area around Herne Bay station?
Yes. Herne Bay station is about 1.9 miles west of Beltinge, and we cover both.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
Not really: homebuyer reports may mention possible asbestos without testing anything. That is what a pre-purchase asbestos survey is for.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Weighing up your options
The cheapest survey is not always the best value. Check how many samples are included, which areas are covered and what the report contains, so you’re comparing like with like. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

- Across London and the South East

- Work done to the regulations

Materials we deal with
Pipe lagging
Lagging on older pipes and boilers can contain asbestos and releases fibres easily. Work on it is licensed.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, normally bound in the bitumen.
Looking after things afterwards
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the scope matches
- Make sure you can pass the report to your builder
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Avoid these
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
DIY and asbestos
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
