Asbestos survey for Goose Green properties
Any building in Goose Green built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. The way to know for sure is a survey: a surveyor inspects the building, takes small samples of suspect materials and records the results in a report. Whether it’s demolition projects and kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects, we deal with garage roofs, water tanks and textured ceilings and more.
Rural homes near Goose Green have often been extended over generations, so a refurbishment survey before work checks every part being touched. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need.

After the job
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
Keeping things safe:
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
Avoid these
Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Step by step
For a management survey, we look into cupboards, voids and lofts that are reasonably accessible and take small samples. Sample points are sealed afterwards. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions.
- Tell us about the building, its age and what you are planning
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Getting ready
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Let us know where we can park
- Keep away from the material in the meantime

Good to know
The usual limits are:
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Goose Green: your questions answered
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
Do you cover Goose Green and the area around Billingshurst station?
Yes, we cover Goose Green and the area towards Billingshurst station, about 4.6 miles north-west.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Will the survey damage the property?
A management survey takes small samples, which are sealed afterwards. A refurbishment and demolition survey is intrusive by design, because it has to look inside the fabric of the building.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats generally do. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Responsibilities for owners
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
