How asbestos survey works in Coleman's Hatch
An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. In Coleman's Hatch, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, and samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis. From managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises and rented homes between tenancies, we cover floor tiles, flues and soffits and more.
Village surveys around Coleman's Hatch can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

What else we do in Coleman's Hatch
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 isn’t enough before refurbishment
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we deal with
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Artex and textured coatings
- Water tanks and flues
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Garage and shed roofs
- Ceiling tiles
- Pipe lagging
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Cement sheets and cladding
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
If you run a business from older premises in Coleman's Hatch, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

Do older homes in Coleman's Hatch have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Coleman's Hatch can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
It’s usually needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Private landlords and homeowners often commission one too.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Coleman's Hatch?
Yes, commercial and community buildings as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
How quickly can you come out?
