Limits to be aware of
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and does not cover:
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it won’t do before building work
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Asbestos survey in Broadgate
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. From shared halls, stairs and plant rooms and demolition projects, we cover flues, floor tiles and pipe lagging.
Around a village like Broadgate, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, so a lab result is essential.
FAQs for Broadgate
Do older homes in Broadgate have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Broadgate can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Broadgate?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
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.
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.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
For businesses and landlords in Broadgate
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
If your business premises in Broadgate were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Afterwards
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
Avoid these
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
