Asbestos survey for Eyhorne Street
How asbestos survey works in Eyhorne Street
Whether you are buying, renovating or letting in Eyhorne Street, a survey answers the asbestos question. We look, sample and record, and an accredited laboratory analyses the samples. From managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises and rented homes due for maintenance, we deal with flues, soffits and pipe lagging and more.
Village houses like those in Eyhorne Street have often been extended and altered over time, so we survey each part the work will disturb. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

DIY and asbestos
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
How we price an asbestos survey
These are the main things that affect the price of an asbestos survey:
- The number of materials to sample
- Material and condition
- Travel and parking
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
Sending photos
A few photos can save a site visit:
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- Street parking nearby
- How we’d reach it
- Approximate dimensions
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: send them through our contact page.
Weighing up your options
An old survey may not be enough. If it was a management survey, it will not have looked inside the fabric of the building where you’re about to work, so planned refurbishment normally needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Why choose us
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- The right survey for your plans
- Across London and the South East
- Condition assessed for every material

A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, as results can differ.
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and must be left alone in the meantime.
For businesses and landlords in Eyhorne Street
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

What else we do in Eyhorne Street
After the job
Material in good condition often doesn’t need removing. The report says what should be checked, and how often it might need looking at again.
Once we are done:
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Book the survey before booking builders
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
Don’ts
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.

Your questions about an asbestos survey in Eyhorne Street
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Eyhorne Street?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Do you cover Eyhorne Street from London?
Eyhorne Street is about 35 miles from central London, well within our area.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Eyhorne Street?
We do: commercial, industrial and community buildings. Tell us about the building and what you need.
Do I need an asbestos survey before renovating?
HSE’s guidance is that a refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before refurbishment or demolition work, for the areas affected.
How can I get a price?
Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Eyhorne Street?
A management survey for a building in normal use; a refurbishment and demolition survey before building work. We’ll recommend one when you tell us what you’re planning.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
What’s included, and what isn’t
To be clear about the scope:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
