How asbestos survey works in Hammill Park

We survey the whole building or just the areas you are working on, whichever fits your plans in Hammill Park. We agree the scope with you before we start, so you know exactly what’s covered. We often deal with soffits, pipe lagging and boiler cupboard panels, and people typically contact us about surveys requested by builders before work and shops, offices and industrial units.

Around a village like Hammill Park, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

What we deal with in Hammill Park

It isn’t only big projects that disturb asbestos: fitting a socket, a downlight or a new boiler flue can mean drilling into it.

You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:

  • Pre-work surveys for trades
  • Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
  • Rented homes between tenancies
  • Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms

Got an older property in Hammill Park, close to Church of St Mary the Virgin or further out? The rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Doing it yourself?

With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Hammill Park: your questions answered

Is asbestos common in Hammill Park homes?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you work near Sandwich station?

Yes. Sandwich station is about 2.7 miles north-east of Hammill Park, and we cover both.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.

Do you survey commercial buildings in Hammill Park?

Yes, commercial and community buildings as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.

Do landlords need an asbestos survey?

Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats usually do. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

Can you quote from photos?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.

Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?

Not really: homebuyer reports may mention possible asbestos without testing anything. A pre-purchase asbestos survey does.

Helpful guides

For landlords, agents and businesses

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.

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Hammill Park must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

After we have finished in Hammill Park

Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Book the survey before booking builders
  • Make sure you can pass the report to your builder
  • Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
  • Share any previous surveys or drawings

Avoid these

Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.

If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
