How asbestos survey works in Deerton Street
We survey the whole building or just the areas you’re working on, depending on what you need. The scope is agreed in writing first, so there are no surprises. People often contact us about common parts of flats and HMOs and demolition projects, involving pipe lagging, garage roofs and textured ceilings.
Rural homes near Deerton Street have often been extended over generations, so a refurbishment survey before work checks every part being touched. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

Choosing the right option
A low price can mean a narrow scope. Compare the areas covered, the sampling and the report, not just the price, before deciding. Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Read how we quote or our cost guide.
Afterwards
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
To avoid problems in future:
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
Things not to do
Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
What happens
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We confirm the survey type and which rooms and outbuildings it covers
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The written report arrives with the results, condition ratings and next steps
Getting ready
- Warn neighbours if needed
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
- Keep the area clear of children and pets

Helpful guides
What we deal with in Deerton Street
Duty holders for non-domestic premises must find out whether asbestos is present and assess its risk. Most duty holders commission a survey to meet that duty.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Rented homes due for maintenance
- Community buildings and halls
- The communal parts of blocks of flats
If you manage lettings around Teynham station, share asbestos information with trades before work.

Materials we deal with
Pipe lagging
Lagging found in a survey is flagged clearly, and must be left alone in the meantime.
Insulating board
Asbestos insulating board was used for panels, partitions, soffits, ceiling tiles and around heaters. Most work on insulating board is licensed, so identifying it matters.

Deerton Street questions
Do you cover Deerton Street from London?
We cover Deerton Street, about 41 miles from central London.
Can you survey a school or hall near Deerton Street?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
No, they’re different: a homebuyer report can flag suspected asbestos without testing it. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Deerton Street?
A management survey for a building in normal use; a refurbishment and demolition survey before building work. Tell us your plans and we’ll advise.
Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
