Asbestos survey in Hampton Wick
Asbestos survey for Hampton Wick properties
What you are planning in Hampton Wick decides the survey: managing the building, refurbishing it, knocking it down or buying it. We will match the survey to the plan. Common materials are water tanks, flues and pipe lagging, and people generally contact us about demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and the communal parts of blocks of flats.
For London properties like those in Hampton Wick, the scope matters most: a whole building, one flat, or just the rooms being refitted. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

For businesses and landlords in Hampton Wick
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Can I do it myself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Where asbestos turns up
Small jobs can disturb asbestos too: fitting a socket, a downlight or a new boiler flue can mean drilling into it, so knowing where it is matters.
Typical jobs in Hampton Wick include:
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Community buildings and halls
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
Schools such as St John the Baptist Church of England Junior School are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos and keep a register, and a management survey is usually where that starts.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- The number of samples
- Whether VAT is included
- What the report or result will contain
What’s included, and what is not
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Materials, one by one
Pipe lagging
Lagging found in a survey is flagged clearly, and it shouldn’t be disturbed.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings such as Artex were used on ceilings and walls, and older ones can contain a small amount of asbestos. They’re low risk left alone, but shouldn’t be sanded or scraped dry.
The process
On the day, the surveyor walks through the areas in scope, checks every suspect material and takes small samples, with each sample point damped and sealed afterwards. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and use controls to keep dust down.
- Get in touch with the address and your plans
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- We carry out the survey on site
- Samples go to the laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Getting ready
- Do not disturb the material before we get there
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready

Hampton Wick questions
Can you work in Hampton Wick with London’s parking rules?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do older homes in Hampton Wick have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Hampton Wick may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
Not really: homebuyer reports may mention possible asbestos without testing anything. That’s what a pre-purchase asbestos survey is for.
Do you work in Hampton Wick?
Yes, we do: our area includes Hampton Wick and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.
Who needs a management survey?
Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings typically starts with one. Many landlords of private homes find one useful before maintenance.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
