Common questions in Forty Green
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Forty Green?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Do you come out to small villages like Forty Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
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.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Forty Green?
That depends on what you’re planning: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Describe the work and we’ll recommend one.

What’s included, and what isn’t
What’s in and what’s out:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

For managing agents and freeholders in Forty Green, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

- Travel and parking

Afterwards
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 you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Book the survey before booking builders
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
What to avoid
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone, and keep trades away from them.
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.

- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
