Asbestos cement
Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. Its condition matters as much as its presence.

Doing it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Prices and what affects them
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- Parking and access charges
- Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
- How easy it is to reach
- The quantity or area
Our quotes are clear about VAT.
What to photograph
The most useful photos are:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Street parking nearby
- Labels, if any
- A wide shot showing where the material is
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you are planning. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
After we’ve finished in Brighthampton
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Things not to do
Please don’t break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.
What happens
For a management survey, we look into cupboards, voids and lofts that are reasonably accessible and take small samples. Sample points are sealed afterwards. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- An accredited laboratory analyses each sample
- The written report arrives with the results, condition ratings and next steps
How to prepare
- Don’t disturb the material before we get there
- Move things out of the way carefully
- Ensure we can get to the area

Questions from Brighthampton
How far is Brighthampton from London?
Brighthampton is about 60 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Brighthampton contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.

Good to know
A few things to be aware of:
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Duty holders and landlords in Brighthampton

For managing agents and freeholders in Brighthampton, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Choosing the right option
Management or refurbishment and demolition? The first is for a building in normal use and involves minor intrusion; the second is fully intrusive and needed before work. See our guide to which survey you need. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
