About our asbestos survey in Crowhurst Lane End
Planning building work in Crowhurst Lane End? Before refurbishment or demolition, HSE’s guidance is that the areas affected need a refurbishment and demolition survey, so nothing hidden is disturbed once work begins. Common materials are floor tiles, flues and boiler cupboard panels, and typical jobs are community buildings and halls and the communal parts of blocks of flats.
In a village like Crowhurst Lane End, surveys often include barns, stables, garages and outbuildings as well as the house, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

What it might be made of
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.
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, which is why sampling matters.
Step by step
Each sample is sealed, labelled and recorded with its location, before going to an accredited laboratory. While we work, the area stays out of bounds.

FAQs for Crowhurst Lane End
Do you cover Crowhurst Lane End from London?
We cover Crowhurst Lane End, about 20 miles from central London.
Do you cover small places like Crowhurst Lane End?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
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.
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.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Does a survey leave holes?
Sampling leaves small, sealed sample points. A refurbishment survey opens up the areas being worked on, which is why they need to be empty.
Good to know
A few things to be aware of:
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment

Should you do it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

Keeping things safe:
