Your options compared
A survey or a sample test? A test answers the question for one or two specific materials; a survey covers everything in scope, including materials nobody had spotted. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.

How asbestos survey works in Brook Green
The type of survey you need in Brook Green depends on what happens next: normal use and maintenance, refurbishment, demolition or a purchase. We’ll match the survey to the plan. Typical jobs include demolition projects and shops, offices and industrial units, including pipe lagging, textured ceilings and floor tiles.
Properties in places like Brook Green have often been refitted and extended over the decades, so a survey before work looks at later alterations as well as the original fabric. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

Where asbestos turns up
You can’t tell whether a material contains asbestos by looking at it. Only laboratory analysis of a sample gives a reliable answer.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Checks on rental property
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Demolition and strip-out
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
For rented homes close to Kensington Olympia station, a survey gives contractors the information they need.
What to look for in a quote
- VAT, clearly stated
- What you will receive in writing
- The scope of the job, in writing
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
What happens next
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
To avoid problems in future:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
What to avoid
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.
Brook Green questions
Do you work near Kensington Olympia station?
Yes. Kensington Olympia station is about 0.5 miles east of Brook Green, and we cover both.
Can you work in Brook Green with London’s parking rules?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
Not really: homebuyer reports may mention possible asbestos without testing anything. That is what a pre-purchase asbestos survey is for.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
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. Describe the work and we will recommend one.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Good to know
Worth knowing before you book:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

- Cement sheets and cladding
- Artex and textured coatings

Helpful guides
A closer look at the materials
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, normally bound in the bitumen.
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and must be left alone in the meantime.
For businesses and landlords in Brook Green
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Brook Green must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Prices and what affects them
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- The quantity or area
- How many different materials need sampling
- How many samples are needed
- The building’s size and layout
Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
