The scope of an asbestos survey
What’s in and what’s out:
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
Materials we see
- Water tanks and flues
- Garage and shed roofs
- Ceiling tiles
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Cement sheets and cladding

For businesses and landlords in Bushwood Area of Leytonstone
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
How we work
In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we check behind, under and inside the parts being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.
- Describe the property and the reason for the survey
- 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 report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear
Getting ready
- Tell us about parking and access
- Tell us about anything that’s already damaged
- Keep the area clear of children and pets

Materials, one by one
Floor tiles and adhesive
We can sample tiles and adhesive separately, because one may contain asbestos when the other does not.
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. It’s licensed work.
Common reasons for surveys in Bushwood Area of Leytonstone
Materials age: a board or coating that was sound years ago may now be cracked or crumbling, which a survey records.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- The communal parts of blocks of flats
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
- Schools, halls and community buildings
- Shops, offices and industrial units
For rented homes close to Leytonstone High Road station, asbestos information should be ready for contractors before maintenance.

DIY and asbestos
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
