Asbestos survey near Brent Park
We survey the whole building or just the areas you’re working on, depending on what you need. We agree the scope with you before we start, so you know exactly what’s covered. People often contact us about contractors’ requests for an asbestos report and demolition projects, involving water tanks, boiler cupboard panels and garage roofs.
In areas like Brent Park, many surveys are for flats, conversions and buildings with shops below, where the shared parts fall under the duty to manage and each flat is the owner’s responsibility. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

DIY and asbestos
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Weighing up your options
A survey or a sample test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey looks at the whole building or work area and finds materials you might not have noticed. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
What you get
- Clear next steps
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Across London and the South East
- Reports that say what wasn’t accessed

After we’ve finished in Brent Park
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Keeping things safe:
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
Don’ts
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Good to know
The usual limits are:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it, though we can quote for that too
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.
Materials we see
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Water tanks and flues
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Garage and shed roofs

Brent Park questions
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Brent Park?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Do you work near Stonebridge Park station?
Yes, we cover Brent Park and the area towards Stonebridge Park station, about 0.9 miles south-west.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Is a survey needed before building work in Brent Park?
HSE’s guidance is that a refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before refurbishment or demolition work, for the areas affected.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
It’s normally needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Private landlords and homeowners often commission one too, to know what’s there before work.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
What does the survey report include?
The materials found, their locations, the laboratory results, their condition, photographs and recommendations. Any areas we couldn’t access are listed.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
Not really: homebuyer reports may mention possible asbestos without testing anything. A pre-purchase asbestos survey does.
