Asbestos survey in East Anton

The point of a survey is more than a list. It records the condition of each material, so you know what can be left and managed and what needs dealing with. Common materials are soffits, pipe lagging and boiler cupboard panels, and people typically contact us about surveys requested by builders before work and purchases of older homes and buildings.

A survey in East Anton typically covers the house and its outbuildings, since those are where cement sheet roofs tend to be. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If your business premises in East Anton were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

Good to know

It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and does not cover:

  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
  • A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
  • The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

FAQs for East Anton

Can you survey a school or hall near East Anton?

Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.

Do older homes in East Anton have asbestos?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in East Anton may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover East Anton?

Yes. We cover East Anton and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is normally needed.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

What if the weather’s bad?

That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

Could my home contain asbestos?

You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

Where asbestos turns up

The danger typically comes from drilling, cutting or sanding a material nobody knew contained asbestos. Surveying first means nobody disturbs it by accident.

Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:

  • Surveys requested by builders before work
  • Demolition projects
  • Workplaces built before 2000
  • Planned refurbishment work

If you have an older property in East Anton, near St Paul Church Centre or anywhere else, survey the areas you’re working on before work starts.

What your quote should include

  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • How many samples are included
  • Which areas and materials are covered

Choosing an asbestos contractor

DIY and asbestos

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

How it works

On the day, the surveyor walks through the areas in scope, checks every suspect material and takes small samples, with each sample point damped and sealed afterwards. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing.

  1. Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
  2. We confirm whether you need a management, refurbishment and demolition or pre-purchase survey
  3. On the day we inspect, sample and photograph
  4. Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
  5. The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear

Before we arrive

  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Have any previous surveys or test results ready

Getting a price

If you have a survey or test result, include it when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
