About our asbestos survey in Ellen's Green
HSE’s guidance describes two main survey types. A management survey is for a building in normal use; a refurbishment and demolition survey is for before building work. We will help you choose the right one for your survey in Ellen's Green. From refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms and pre-purchase checks on older properties, we cover water tanks, garage roofs and flues and more.
Village properties around Ellen's Green often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Ellen's Green: your questions answered
Do you cover Ellen's Green and the area around Warnham station?
Yes. Warnham station is about 4 miles east of Ellen's Green, and we cover both.
Do you cover Ellen's Green from London?
Ellen's Green is about 30 miles from central London, well within our area.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Why people call us in Ellen's Green
Materials age: something in good condition when it was fitted may now be damaged, and the survey assesses condition.
Typical jobs in Ellen's Green include:

A closer look at the materials
Asbestos cement
Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, as results can differ.
Your options compared
An old survey may not be enough. A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so planned refurbishment generally needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Why us?
- Every main survey type
- Practical recommendations
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Each material’s condition recorded
