Your options compared
An old survey may not be enough. A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so planned refurbishment usually needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
Why people choose us
- Condition assessed for every material
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Domestic and commercial work

Broyle Side: your questions answered
How far is Broyle Side from London?
Broyle Side is about 42 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Broyle Side?
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.
What does the survey report include?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Areas not accessed are listed too.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional.
How do I get a quote?
Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.

Materials, one by one
Textured coatings
Older textured ceilings can contain asbestos. They’re low risk left alone, but shouldn’t be sanded or scraped dry.
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.
How we work
A management survey involves minor intrusion: lifting ceiling tiles, opening service cupboards and taking small samples. We seal up each sample point. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere.
- 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
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The written report arrives with the results, condition ratings and next steps
Before we arrive
- Keep the area clear of children and pets
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage

Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Afterwards
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so they know what to avoid or plan around.
Once we’re done:
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
Things not to do
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
The scope of an asbestos survey
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it, though we can quote for that too
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work
