Asbestos survey in Clement Street
About to refurbish in Clement Street? HSE’s guidance calls for a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas being worked on before the work starts, so nothing hidden is disturbed once work begins. People often contact us about purchases of older homes and buildings and demolition and strip-out, including textured ceilings, floor tiles and garage roofs.
Village surveys around Clement Street can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Afterwards
Any areas not accessed are listed, so they’re treated as if they contain asbestos until checked.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
Don’ts
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you manage or own a block in Clement Street, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

- The quantity or area

Why people call us in Clement Street
Older buildings have often been altered many times, so asbestos can turn up in later additions as well as original features, which is why surveys look everywhere in scope, not just at the obvious places.
People typically contact us about one of these:
- Demolition and strip-out
- Rented homes due for maintenance
- The communal parts of blocks of flats
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
For a school like Sutton-At-Hone Church of England Primary School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register.
What your quote should include
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- Survey methods in line with HSG264
- Whether extra samples cost more
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work

Clement Street questions
Is asbestos common in Clement Street homes?
If your home in Clement Street was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Clement Street and the area around Farningham Road station?
Yes, we cover Clement Street and the area towards Farningham Road station, about 1.3 miles south-east.
Do you work in Clement Street?
Yes, Clement Street is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
Who needs a management survey?
It’s normally needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
Yes, commercial and community buildings as well as homes. Send us the details of the building.
Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, so you know before plastering or rewiring.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, usually bound in the bitumen.

Limits to be aware of
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and doesn’t cover:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.

- Floor tiles and adhesive
