Asbestos survey in Hampers Green
An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. In Hampers Green, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. Common materials are water tanks, floor tiles and pipe lagging, and typical jobs are shared halls, stairs and plant rooms and refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms.
Village properties around Hampers Green often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Your options compared
An existing survey might not cover your plans. If it was a management survey, it won’t have looked inside the fabric of the building where you are about to work, so refurbishment needs a fresh, intrusive survey of the work areas. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

What it costs
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- The building’s size and layout
- Lofts, voids and outbuildings to include
- Travel and parking
- Material and condition
Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Photos that help
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Cracks or breaks
- Where we could park
Every job is quoted in writing. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page with the details, including any survey or test you already have.
How it works
If a material is damaged, we will say so before we leave, rather than waiting for the report. While we work, the area stays out of bounds.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We agree the survey type and scope, and send a quote
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- The samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear
Preparing for the visit
- Keep the area clear of children and pets
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone

- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
