Asbestos survey near Coxhill Green
Asbestos survey in Coxhill Green
Buying an older property in Coxhill Green? A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, so you can plan renovations with your eyes open. Whether it’s demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and planned refurbishment work, we deal with flues, floor tiles and pipe lagging.
Village properties around Coxhill Green often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Coxhill Green questions
Do you cover Coxhill Green from London?
We cover Coxhill Green, about 24 miles from central London.
Can you survey a school or hall near Coxhill Green?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
How do I get a quote?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Is a survey needed before building work in Coxhill Green?
Yes, for the areas affected: HSE’s guidance (HSG264) is that refurbishment and demolition work needs a refurbishment and demolition survey first.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What happens next
After the survey you get a written report: what was found, where, the laboratory results, the condition of each material and our recommendations.
Keeping things safe:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Survey first, then book the trades
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
Don’ts
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.

What’s included, and what isn’t
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
- A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
