About our asbestos survey in Boorley Green
Before you buy, build or let in Boorley Green, it helps to know what’s in the building. We look, sample and record, and an accredited laboratory analyses the samples. Common materials are pipe lagging, textured ceilings and boiler cupboard panels, and typical jobs are public and community buildings and common parts of flats and HMOs.
In a smaller place like Boorley Green, surveys are often for family homes before renovation, with garages and outbuildings included, because cement sheet roofs are common on older garages. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

A closer look at the materials

FAQs for Boorley Green
Do you cover Boorley Green from London?
We cover Boorley Green, about 65 miles from central London.
Do you work near Hedge End station?
Yes, we cover Boorley Green and the area towards Hedge End station, about 0.7 miles west.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
Yes, we do: commercial, industrial and community buildings. Send us the size, use and age of the building.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Will the survey damage the property?
Sampling leaves small, sealed sample points. A refurbishment survey opens up the areas being worked on, which is why they need to be empty.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Duty holders and landlords in Boorley Green
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Common reasons for surveys in Boorley Green
Materials age: a board or coating that was sound years ago may now be cracked or crumbling, and the survey assesses condition.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Checks on rental property
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Demolition and strip-out
If you manage lettings around Hedge End station, asbestos information should be ready for contractors before maintenance.
What your quote should include
- Whether extra samples cost more
- Which areas are covered, and which aren’t

What it costs
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- Lofts, voids and outbuildings to include
- Location, parking and any London charges
- The survey type
- The building’s size and layout
The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
What to photograph
When you send photos, these help most:
- A picture of the whole area
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- An idea of size
- Visible markings
Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
What’s included, and what isn’t
A few things to be aware of:
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.
