Asbestos help in Cliddesden

Asbestos survey in Cliddesden

Duty holders for workplaces and common parts in Cliddesden must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. A management survey is generally the starting point. Typical materials include boiler cupboard panels, pipe lagging and textured ceilings, and typical jobs are kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects and demolition of garages, extensions and buildings.

In a village like Cliddesden, surveys often include barns, stables, garages and outbuildings as well as the house, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

What we deal with in Cliddesden

Asbestos went into roofing, boards, coatings, tiles, insulation and more, so they can turn up almost anywhere in an older building.

These are some of the things we deal with in Cliddesden:

  • Community buildings and halls
  • Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
  • Purchases of older homes and buildings
  • Demolition and strip-out

A school such as Cliddesden Primary School counts as non-domestic premises, where the law requires asbestos to be managed.

What your quote should include

  • Survey methods in line with HSG264
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
  • The scope, in writing

Choosing an asbestos contractor

What affects the price in Cliddesden

These are the main things that affect the price of an asbestos survey:

  • Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
  • The survey scope
  • How much there is
  • How easy it is to reach

The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

What to photograph

When you send photos, these help most:

  • The parking area
  • An idea of size
  • Labels, if any
  • A wide shot showing where the material is

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Your options compared

Do you need a full survey, or just a test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey covers everything in scope, including materials nobody had spotted. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

How we work

If we find something that’s damaged and could be releasing fibres, we tell you on the day, rather than waiting for the report. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on.

  1. Tell us about the building, its age and what you are planning
  2. We agree the survey type and scope, and send a quote
  3. We inspect and sample the areas in scope
  4. Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
  5. You get the report, and we talk you through it

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them

Helpful guides

Good to know

What’s in and what’s out:

  • A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
  • A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Materials we see

  • Water tanks and flues
  • Roofing felt and bitumen
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Boiler cupboards and panels
  • Pipe lagging
  • Cement sheets and cladding
  • Soffits and porch canopies
  • Ceiling tiles

More about this service

DIY and asbestos

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Questions from Cliddesden

Do you cover Cliddesden and the area around Basingstoke station?

Yes. Basingstoke station is about 2.2 miles north of Cliddesden, and we cover both.

Do older homes in Cliddesden have asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Cliddesden can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Is a survey needed before building work in Cliddesden?

For the parts of the building being worked on, yes: HSE’s guidance (HSG264) is that refurbishment and demolition work needs a refurbishment and demolition survey first.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?

Not really: homebuyer reports may mention possible asbestos without testing anything. That is what a pre-purchase asbestos survey is for.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

For managing agents and freeholders in Cliddesden, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

A closer look at the materials

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. The fibres are bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.

Textured coatings

We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, so you know before plastering or rewiring.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
