Asbestos survey near Carpenders Park
Duty holders for workplaces and common parts in Carpenders Park must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. The usual first step is a management survey. From demolition and strip-out and refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms, we deal with soffits, floor tiles and flues and more.
In a London neighbourhood like Carpenders Park, surveys are often for flats, converted houses and mixed-use buildings, where the shared parts fall under the duty to manage and each flat is the owner’s responsibility. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Duty holders and landlords in Carpenders Park
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.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Do you give written quotes?

Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
No, they’re different: a homebuyer report can flag suspected asbestos without testing it. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
Can I do it myself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

A closer look at the materials
Roofing felt and bitumen
Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, normally well bound in.
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, so a lab result is essential.
Weighing up your options
An old survey may not be enough. A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so planned refurbishment typically needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. Every quote says whether VAT is included.
What you get
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Reports and results you can share
- Condition ratings, not just a list
- Management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys

After we’ve finished in Carpenders Park
Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and what kind of work that is.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Describe the work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Book the survey before you book builders
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
What to avoid
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
The scope of an asbestos survey
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
