Asbestos survey for Domewood
About our asbestos survey in Domewood
Plenty of older buildings, in Domewood as anywhere, have little or no asbestos, and much of what’s found can stay. The survey shows which applies to yours, so you can plan sensibly. From checks on rental property and pre-purchase checks on older properties, we cover water tanks, floor tiles and soffits and more.
Rural homes near Domewood have often been extended over generations, so a refurbishment survey before work checks every part being touched. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Helpful guides
What we deal with in Domewood
Many buildings have been extended, refitted and repaired over the years, so asbestos can turn up in later additions as well as original features, so a survey checks the whole scope, not just obvious spots.
These are some of the things we deal with in Domewood:
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
- Demolition and strip-out
- Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
For rented homes close to East Grinstead station, it helps to know what’s in the building before repairs.
What your quote should include
- That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
- Areas included and excluded
- What the report or result will contain
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
Domewood questions
Do you cover small places like Domewood?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Domewood?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Domewood?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
After we’ve finished in Domewood
After the survey you get a written report: locations, results, condition and recommendations for every material in scope.
To avoid problems in future:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
- Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
Things not to do
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.

Options to consider in Domewood
Some people skip the survey and hope for the best. Finding asbestos halfway through a job means stopping work, extra cost and possible exposure, which is why surveying first tends to save money. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
Why us?
- Inaccessible areas listed clearly
- Written quotes that say what’s included
- Across London and the South East
- Accredited laboratory results

Can I do it myself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
A closer look at the materials
Pipe lagging
Lagging found in a survey is flagged clearly, and it shouldn’t be disturbed.
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, which is why sampling matters.

What we do and don’t cover
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
What we deal with
- Ceiling tiles
- Water tanks and flues
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Pipe lagging
