About our asbestos survey in Clifton Reynes
An asbestos survey tells you what asbestos is in a building, where it is and what state it’s in. We offer management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys in Clifton Reynes, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. We often deal with textured ceilings, garage roofs and pipe lagging, and typical jobs are demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and purchases of older homes and buildings.
Village surveys around Clifton Reynes can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house. We only recommend work that’s needed, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

What happens next
Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and whether that work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed.
After we’ve finished:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
Don’ts
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone, and keep trades away from them.

Doing it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
What it costs
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- The quantity or area
- The building’s size and layout
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- The type of material and its condition
Our quotes are clear about VAT.
What to photograph
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Visible markings
- Where we could park
- Damaged areas
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: send them through our contact page.
Weighing up your options
A management survey or a refurbishment and demolition survey? A management survey suits a building in use; a refurbishment and demolition survey looks behind and under surfaces before building work. See our guide to which survey you need. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
Why choose us
- Management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys
- Work done to the regulations
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Practical recommendations

FAQs for Clifton Reynes
Do you cover Clifton Reynes from London?
Clifton Reynes is about 52 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Clifton Reynes contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

The scope of an asbestos survey
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

Why people call us in Clifton Reynes
Contractors working on buildings need to know where asbestos is before they start. HSE regularly reminds tradespeople to check before they start, and a survey report gives them that information.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Rented homes between tenancies
- Demolition and strip-out
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
