What it might be made of
Roofing felt and bitumen
Felt on flat roofs and outbuildings is sampled where it’s in scope.
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, so a lab result is essential.
Choosing the right option
A management survey or a refurbishment and demolition survey? The first is for a building in normal use and involves minor intrusion; the second is fully intrusive and needed before work. Our guide explains which you need. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.
What you get
- Reports and results you can share
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys
- Each material’s condition recorded

Questions from Hadlow Down
How far is Hadlow Down from London?
Hadlow Down is about 37 miles from central London, well within our area.
Could my house in Hadlow Down contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you cover Hadlow Down?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.
