Asbestos survey for Corhampton properties
If you’re buying a home or building in Corhampton from before 2000, a pre-purchase survey shows what asbestos is present, and its condition, before you commit, so you can plan renovations with your eyes open. We often deal with pipe lagging, soffits and textured ceilings, and typical jobs are community buildings and halls and refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms.
Village houses like those in Corhampton have often been extended and altered over time, so a refurbishment survey before work checks every part being touched. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

The cost depends on:

- An overall view

What happens next
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
Don’ts
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
FAQs for Corhampton
Do you cover Corhampton from London?
We cover Corhampton, about 57 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small villages like Corhampton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
No, they’re different: a homebuyer report can flag suspected asbestos without testing it. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
Who needs a management survey?
It’s usually needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Is a survey needed before building work in Corhampton?
HSE’s guidance is that a refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before refurbishment or demolition work, for the areas affected.

Materials we deal with
Roofing felt and bitumen
Felt on flat roofs and outbuildings is sampled where it’s in scope.
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
Typical surveys in Corhampton
You can’t tell whether a material contains asbestos by looking at it. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the only reliable way to know.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Rented homes due for maintenance
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Planned refurbishment work
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
If you have an older property in Corhampton, near Corhampton Church or anywhere else, a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected should come first.
Before you book anyone
- Which areas and materials are covered
- VAT, clearly stated
- The survey type, as defined in HSG264
- What you’ll receive in writing
Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
