Asbestos survey in Fullerton
Asbestos survey near Fullerton
There are two main types of survey, set out in HSE’s guide HSG264. A management survey covers a building in everyday use, while a refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before work starts. We will help you choose the right one for your survey in Fullerton. We often deal with water tanks, soffits and textured ceilings, and people typically contact us about demolition and strip-out and buying a property built before 2000.
Rural homes near Fullerton have often been extended over generations, so we survey each part the work will disturb. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Materials we deal with
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, so a lab result is essential.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, generally well bound in.
What happens next
If there are areas we couldn’t reach, the report lists them clearly, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.
Some practical advice:
- Describe the work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
Don’ts
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Do not take samples yourself before the survey: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.

Which option is right?
An existing survey might not cover your plans. A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so planned refurbishment typically needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Why choose us
- Clear notes on any areas not reached
- Covering London and the South East
- Samples analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Work done to the regulations

For businesses and landlords in Fullerton
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Limits to be aware of
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it is not enough before refurbishment
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.
What we deal with
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Ceiling tiles
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Garage and shed roofs
- Pipe lagging
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Water tanks and flues
- Artex and textured coatings
What happens
In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions.
- Send us the address and what you need the survey for
- We confirm whether you need a management, refurbishment and demolition or pre-purchase survey
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You receive a clear written report with recommendations
How to prepare
- Let us know if something’s broken
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive

Prices and what affects them
When we quote, we look at:
- The quantity or area

Photos that help
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:

- An idea of size
- A close-up from a safe distance
Include any existing survey or test when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
