How asbestos survey works in Clanville
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building in Clanville, or the shared parts of a block of flats, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. The usual first step is a management survey. From checks on rental property and schools, halls and community buildings, we cover boiler cupboard panels, soffits and floor tiles.
Rural homes near Clanville have often been extended over generations, so we survey each part the work will disturb. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Should you do it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
The process
On the day, the surveyor walks through the areas in scope, checks every suspect material and takes small samples, with each sample point damped and sealed afterwards. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions.
- Call or message us with the address and what’s prompting 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
- An accredited laboratory analyses each sample
- The written report arrives with the results, condition ratings and next steps
Before we arrive
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
- Let us know if something’s broken
- Dig out previous surveys

The scope of an asbestos survey
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and doesn’t cover:
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
What we deal with
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Ceiling tiles
- Artex and textured coatings
- Water tanks and flues
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Pipe lagging
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Garage and shed roofs
- Boiler cupboards and panels
Materials, one by one
Roofing felt and bitumen
Felt on flat roofs and outbuildings is sampled where it’s in scope.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
What happens next
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Keeping things safe:
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Describe the work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
What to avoid
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.
Choosing the right option
It can be tempting to start work without a survey. Finding asbestos halfway through a job means stopping work, extra cost and possible exposure, so surveying first is generally cheaper in the end. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

FAQs for Clanville
Could my house in Clanville contain asbestos?
If your home in Clanville was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Clanville from London?
Clanville is about 65 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?
That depends on what you’re planning: 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.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Do not try to clean up the debris yourself, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
