Duty holders and landlords in Conford
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Conford must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Asbestos survey in Conford
About to refurbish in Conford? 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. Typical materials include garage roofs, flues and soffits, and people generally contact us about shops, offices and industrial units and demolition and strip-out.
Rural homes near Conford have often been extended over generations, so we survey each part the work will disturb. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Why people call us in Conford
Asbestos-containing materials were made for decades in many forms, so they can turn up almost anywhere in an older building, which is why surveys are systematic.
People generally contact us about one of these:
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Workplaces built before 2000
For a school like Liphook Infant School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.
What your quote should include
- Survey methods in line with HSG264
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report contents
Good to know
So you know what to expect:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos

Doing it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Afterwards
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.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
What to avoid
Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so there’s time to deal with anything it finds.
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
What else we do in Conford
Your questions about an asbestos survey in Conford
Do you cover Conford from London?
Conford is about 42 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover small places like Conford?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
No. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not normally take samples for analysis. That’s what a pre-purchase asbestos survey is for.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, as results can differ.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, generally well bound in.
