Asbestos survey near Eastbury

Good to know

A few things to be aware of:

  • The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
  • The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
  • A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.

What we deal with

  • Cement sheets and cladding
  • Roofing felt and bitumen
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Ceiling tiles
  • Pipe lagging
  • Water tanks and flues
  • Boiler cupboards and panels
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Soffits and porch canopies
  • Floor tiles and adhesive

About our asbestos survey in Eastbury

Any building in Eastbury built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. A survey is the way to find out: we inspect, sample suspect materials and write up what we find. Whether it’s purchases of older homes and buildings and kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects, we cover textured ceilings, flues and floor tiles.

Before work on a flat or house in Eastbury, the usual question is how far the survey needs to go: a whole building, one flat, or just the rooms being refitted. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Which option is right?

A homebuyer report isn’t an asbestos survey. It might mention possible asbestos without testing anything, so a pre-purchase asbestos survey fills that gap. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.

Why people choose us

  • Every main survey type
  • Across London and the South East
  • Each material’s condition recorded
  • Accredited laboratory results

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles and adhesive

We can sample tiles and adhesive separately, as results can differ.

Pipe lagging

If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and it shouldn’t be disturbed.

  2. We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing

Helpful guides

What we deal with in Eastbury

Asbestos materials often look exactly like ones without asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample gives a reliable answer.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:

  • Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
  • Rented homes due for maintenance
  • Pre-purchase checks on older properties
  • Surveys requested by builders before work

For rented homes close to Carpenders Park station, share asbestos information with trades before work.

Comparing quotes

  • Suitable insurance for the work
  • The scope of the job, in writing
  • That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
  • Which areas are covered, and which are not

How we price an asbestos survey

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • The size and age of the building
  • What the material is and its state
  • The quantity or area
  • The survey scope

There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

What to photograph

Photos often save us a visit:

  • An idea of size
  • Street parking nearby
  • Damaged areas
  • An overall view

For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you’re planning. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

After the job

If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.

Some practical advice:

  • Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
  • Share any previous surveys or drawings
  • Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
  • In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas

Don’ts

If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.

If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.

Responsibilities for owners

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

If you run a business from older premises in Eastbury, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Questions from Eastbury

Do you work near Carpenders Park station?

Yes. Carpenders Park station is about 1.4 miles east of Eastbury, and we cover both.

Can you work in Eastbury with London’s parking rules?

We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

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

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

Do landlords need an asbestos survey?

Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings usually starts with one. Many landlords of private homes find one useful before maintenance.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
