Asbestos survey in Frogham
Choosing the right option
It can be tempting to start work without a survey. If asbestos is then found mid-job, work stops, costs rise and people may have been exposed, so surveying first is typically cheaper in the end. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.

Your questions about an asbestos survey in Frogham
Do you work on properties in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you work near Snowdown station?
Yes. Snowdown station is about 0.8 miles north-west of Frogham, and we cover both.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Frogham?
That depends on what you are planning: normal use and management calls for a management survey, while refurbishment or demolition needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected. Describe the work and we’ll recommend one.
Who needs a management survey?
Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings generally starts with one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
How it works
Each sample is sealed, labelled and recorded with its location, then sent to an accredited laboratory. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere.

- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- On the day we inspect, sample and photograph
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You receive a clear written report with recommendations
How to prepare

- Let neighbours know if the work is near them

Looking after things afterwards
Any areas not accessed are listed, so they’re treated as if they contain asbestos until checked.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
What to avoid
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
What we do and do not cover
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and does not cover:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

People normally contact us about one of these:
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Public and community buildings
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Rented homes between tenancies
For a school like Nonington Church of England Primary School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register.

A closer look at the materials
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Felt on flat roofs and outbuildings is sampled where it’s in scope.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
