How asbestos survey works in Filmore Hill
There are two main types of survey, set out in HSE’s guide HSG264. A management survey is for a building in normal use; a refurbishment and demolition survey is for before building work. We’ll help you choose the right one for your survey in Filmore Hill. We often deal with water tanks, boiler cupboard panels and soffits, and typical jobs are planned refurbishment work and rented homes due for maintenance.
In a village like Filmore Hill, surveys often include barns, stables, garages and outbuildings as well as the house, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Should you do it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Typical surveys in Filmore Hill
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.
These come up again and again:
- Community buildings and halls
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Buying a property built before 2000
If you have an older property in Filmore Hill, near Holy Trinity Church or anywhere else, survey the areas you’re working on before work starts.

- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas

Your questions about an asbestos survey in Filmore Hill
Could my house in Filmore Hill contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover small places like Filmore Hill?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work in flats?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
How do I get a quote?
Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
What will I get after the survey?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Any areas we couldn’t access are listed.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

For businesses and landlords in Filmore Hill
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Choosing the right option
An old survey may not be enough. If it was a management survey, it won’t have looked inside the fabric of the building where you’re about to work, so planned refurbishment typically needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
What you get
- Condition assessed for every material
- Clear notes on any areas not reached
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
- Houses, flats and business premises
