Curbridge has a mix of older and newer homes, and anything altered before 2000 may contain asbestos, so a survey before work is sensible. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

FAQs for Curbridge

How far is Curbridge from London?

Curbridge is about 65 miles from central London, well within our area.

Could my house in Curbridge contain asbestos?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

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.

Is asbestos dangerous?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.

What paperwork will I get?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.

How do I get a quote?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

What if the weather’s bad?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

A closer look at the materials

Asbestos cement

Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. Its condition matters as much as its presence.

Floor tiles and adhesive

Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.

The process

A management survey involves minor intrusion: lifting ceiling tiles, opening service cupboards and taking small samples. Sample points are sealed afterwards. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions.

Limits to be aware of

We are upfront about what’s included:

Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it
A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it will not do before building work

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Common reasons for surveys in Curbridge

Contractors working on buildings need to know where asbestos is before they start. HSE regularly reminds tradespeople to check before they start, and a survey report is how they find out.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:

Public and community buildings
Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
Checks on rental property
Demolition projects

If you manage lettings around Botley station, a survey gives contractors the information they need.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Should you do it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Options to consider in Curbridge

It can be tempting to start work without a survey. If asbestos is then found mid-job, work stops, costs rise and people may have been exposed, so surveying first is typically cheaper in the end. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
