Asbestos survey in Brogdale
Looking after things afterwards
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
Avoid these
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.
Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Asbestos survey for Brogdale properties
The point of a survey is more than a list. It tells you which materials are fine to leave, which need watching and which should come out before work. Whether it’s shared halls, stairs and plant rooms and demolition projects, we cover textured ceilings, water tanks and pipe lagging.
Around a village like Brogdale, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings, each scoped separately if needed. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Typical surveys in Brogdale
Over time, materials deteriorate: something in good condition when it was fitted may now be damaged, and the survey assesses condition.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- The communal parts of blocks of flats
- Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Public and community buildings
If you manage lettings around Faversham station, a survey gives contractors the information they need.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which areas are covered, and which aren’t
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- The scope of the job, in writing
- VAT, clearly stated
What’s included, and what is not
Some limits to bear in mind:
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Brogdale: your questions answered
Could my house in Brogdale contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Brogdale may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you survey a school or hall near Brogdale?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?
It depends on your plans: normal use and management calls for a management survey, while refurbishment or demolition needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected. Tell us more and we will advise.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Brogdale?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Send us the details of the building.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Do you cover Brogdale?
Yes. We cover Brogdale and the surrounding area as part of Kent. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
It’s typically 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.
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.
What it might be made of
Insulating board
Insulating board turns up in panels, ceilings, soffits and boiler cupboards. Most work on it is licensed, so identifying it matters.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, generally well bound in.
How it works
A management survey involves minor intrusion: lifting ceiling tiles, opening service cupboards and taking small samples. Sample points are sealed afterwards. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next.
- 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
- The lab analyses the samples
- The report sets out what was found and what to do next
Getting ready
- Mention any parking restrictions
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
