What it might be made of
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and it shouldn’t be disturbed.
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, so a lab result is essential.
Where asbestos turns up
It is not only big projects that disturb asbestos: fitting a socket, a downlight or a new boiler flue can mean drilling into it.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Checks on rental property
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
Non-domestic buildings, Denmead Junior School among them, come under the duty to manage asbestos, and a management survey is normally where that starts.

After the job
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
Avoid these
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
The scope of an asbestos survey
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- 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
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we see
- Water tanks and flues
- Pipe lagging
- Artex and textured coatings
- Ceiling tiles
- Floor tiles and adhesive

Options to consider in Furzeley Corner
An old survey may not be enough. A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so refurbishment needs a fresh, intrusive survey of the work areas. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

FAQs for Furzeley Corner
Do older homes in Furzeley Corner have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Furzeley Corner?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Furzeley Corner?
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 are planning.
What will I get after the survey?
The materials found, their locations, the laboratory results, their condition, photographs and recommendations. Areas not accessed are listed too.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
