Asbestos survey in Everton
Asbestos survey for Everton properties
An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. In Everton, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. Typical jobs include planned refurbishment work and demolition of garages, extensions and buildings, including garage roofs, floor tiles and pipe lagging.
Village properties around Everton often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Weighing up your options
An existing survey might not cover your plans. A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so refurbishment needs a fresh, intrusive survey of the work areas. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Why us?
- Practical recommendations
- The right survey for your plans
- Reports that say what wasn’t accessed
- Written quotes that say what’s included

How it works
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we check behind, under and inside the parts being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. We will tell you when we have finished and what you’ll receive afterwards.
- Tell us about the building, its age and why you need a survey
- We agree the type of survey and the areas it covers, and send a quote
- Our surveyor inspects and takes small samples of suspect materials
- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- You receive a written report with locations, results, condition and recommendations
Before we arrive
- Find any old asbestos reports
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Tell us about parking and access

DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
For landlords, agents and businesses
For managing agents and freeholders in Everton, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Why people call us in Everton
Until the 1999 ban, asbestos went into hundreds of building products. So buildings across Hampshire can contain it in roofs, soffits, ceilings, floors and boiler cupboards.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Demolition projects
If you manage lettings around Lymington Town station, it helps to know what’s in the building before repairs.

Materials, one by one
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, which is why sampling matters.
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, because one may contain asbestos when the other doesn’t.

Everton is within about 5 miles of the New Forest National Park, and rural properties there often have outbuildings worth including in a survey.

Limits to be aware of
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it doesn’t:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before you book.
What we deal with

- Water tanks and flues
- Ceiling tiles
- Garage and shed roofs

Everton questions
Do you cover Everton and the area around Lymington Town station?
Yes, we cover Everton and the area towards Lymington Town station, about 2.5 miles north-east.
Do older homes in Everton have asbestos?
If your home in Everton was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What does the survey report include?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Areas not accessed are listed too.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
No, they’re different: a homebuyer or building survey may note possible asbestos, but it does not generally sample anything. A pre-purchase asbestos survey gives you that answer.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job.
