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.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Duty holders and landlords in Cuddington
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Afterwards
If there are areas we couldn’t reach, the report lists them clearly, so they’re treated as if they contain asbestos until checked.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
Things not to do
Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
Questions from Cuddington
Could my house in Cuddington contain asbestos?
Any home in Cuddington built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Cuddington from London?
We cover Cuddington, about 41 miles from central London.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Do you work in Cuddington?
Yes, we do: Cuddington is within the area we cover in Buckinghamshire. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Who needs a management survey?
Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats typically do. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
No. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not normally take samples for analysis. A pre-purchase asbestos survey does.

Options to consider in Cuddington
Do you need a full survey, or just a test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey covers everything in scope, including materials nobody had spotted. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

- Every main survey type
- Across London and the South East
- Written quotes that say what’s included

Common reasons for surveys in Cuddington
For workplaces and common parts, the law requires asbestos to be identified and its risk assessed. A survey is the usual way to do that.
These are some of the things we deal with in Cuddington:
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
- Community buildings and halls
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Workplaces built before 2000
Got an older property in Cuddington, close to Parish Church of St Nicholas or further out? The rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.

Prices and what affects them
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- How many samples are needed
- What the material is and its state
- How many different materials need sampling
- Location, parking and any London charges
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Photos that help
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Cracks or breaks
- An overall view
- How we’d reach it
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form; it helps us quote accurately.
The process
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so those areas need to be empty. Parking close by makes the day easier.
- Send us the address and what you need the survey for
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- We carry out the survey on site
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You receive a clear written report with recommendations
How to prepare
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Mention any damage before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions
Ask for a quote
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you’re planning. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

What we do and do not cover
A few things to be aware of:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

- Roofing felt and bitumen
