Asbestos survey in Goodworth Clatford
Plenty of older buildings, in Goodworth Clatford as anywhere, have little or no asbestos, and much of what’s found can stay. A survey tells you which situation you’re in. Typical materials include water tanks, pipe lagging and soffits, and typical jobs are demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and checks on rental property.

After we have finished in Goodworth Clatford
If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report says what should be checked, and how often it might need looking at again.
Keeping things safe:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Book the survey before booking builders
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
Avoid these
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Do not take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Your questions about an asbestos survey in Goodworth Clatford
Do you cover Goodworth Clatford from London?
We cover Goodworth Clatford, about 64 miles from central London.
Could my house in Goodworth Clatford contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Goodworth Clatford may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Goodworth Clatford?
Yes. We cover Goodworth Clatford and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Send us the postcode for a quote.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.

The scope of an asbestos survey
Some limits to bear in mind:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.
