Asbestos help in Hampton Hill
After we have finished in Hampton Hill
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Survey first, then book the trades
What to avoid
Book the survey before the builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Asbestos survey for Hampton Hill properties
Our surveys in Hampton Hill cover homes, rented property, shops, offices, schools and industrial units. Whatever the building, the report sets out what was found, where, the laboratory results and what we recommend. Typical jobs include the communal parts of blocks of flats and refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms, including floor tiles, textured ceilings and flues.
Before work on a flat or house in Hampton Hill, the usual question is how far the survey needs to go: a whole building, one flat, or just the rooms being refitted. If you’re unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Hampton Hill: your questions answered
Do you cover Hampton Hill and the area around Fulwell station?
Yes. Fulwell station is about 0.6 miles north-east of Hampton Hill, and we cover both.
Could my house in Hampton Hill contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Hampton Hill may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
What will I get after the survey?
Every suspect material in the agreed scope: where it is, whether it contains asbestos, its condition, photos and what to do.
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.
Where asbestos turns up
Older buildings have often been altered many times, so asbestos may be in later alterations as much as the original structure, so a survey checks the whole scope, not just obvious spots.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Schools, halls and community buildings
- Shops, offices and industrial units
For rented homes close to Fulwell station, asbestos information should be ready for contractors before maintenance.
What to look for in a quote
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- VAT, clearly stated
- What the report or result will contain
- Survey methods in line with HSG264
Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Limits to be aware of
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and does not cover:
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it will not do before building work
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Options to consider in Hampton Hill
Do you need a full survey, or just a test? A test answers the question for one or two specific materials; a survey looks at the whole building or work area and finds materials you might not have noticed. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Materials, one by one

- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
