Your options compared
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. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

What else we do in Enham Alamein
Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Enham Alamein: your questions answered
Do you come out to small villages like Enham Alamein?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
How far is Enham Alamein from London?
Enham Alamein is about 62 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is a survey needed before building work in Enham Alamein?
Yes, for the areas being worked on: HSE’s guidance calls for a refurbishment and demolition survey before the work starts.

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

Will the survey damage the property?
Only minimally for a management survey: small samples are taken and the points sealed. A refurbishment and demolition survey opens up the areas being worked on, by design.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What happens next
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
Avoid these
Be clear about the work you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
The scope of an asbestos survey
So you know what to expect:
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it

A closer look at the materials
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, so a lab result is essential.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings such as Artex were used on ceilings and walls, and older ones can contain a small amount of asbestos. Left alone they’re low risk; sanding or dry scraping is the problem.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
