Asbestos survey in Goldsworth Park
Common reasons for surveys in Goldsworth Park
Older buildings have often been altered many times, so asbestos may be in later alterations as much as the original structure, which is why surveys look everywhere in scope, not just at the obvious places.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Public and community buildings

Asbestos survey near Goldsworth Park
HSE’s guidance describes two main survey types. 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 Goldsworth Park. Whether it’s refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms and demolition of garages, extensions and buildings, we cover boiler cupboard panels, soffits and flues.
A survey in Goldsworth Park typically covers the house and its outbuildings, as outbuildings often have cement roofs. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

After the job
If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.
Keeping things safe:
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
Avoid these
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Should you do it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
For businesses and landlords in Goldsworth Park
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Which option is right?
A building survey for a purchase is not the same as an asbestos survey. It might mention possible asbestos without testing anything, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

What it might be made of
Roofing felt and bitumen
Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, usually bound in the bitumen.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement turns up on roofs, flues and outbuildings. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.
What affects the price in Goldsworth Park
Quotes vary because of:
- Parking and access charges
- The type of material and its condition
- How much sampling is needed
- The size and age of the building
Every quote says whether VAT is included.

Goldsworth Park is about 24 miles from central London, well within our area.
How dangerous is asbestos?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
How can I get a price?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Who needs a management survey?
Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings typically starts with one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.

- We recommend the right type of survey
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report sets out what was found and what to do next
How to prepare

- Mention any damage before we arrive
- Do not disturb the material before we get there
