How asbestos survey works in Hangersley

The point of a survey is more than a list. It records the condition of each material, so you know what can be left and managed and what needs dealing with. From purchases of older homes and buildings and shops, offices and industrial units, we cover garage roofs, flues and water tanks and more.

Around a village like Hangersley, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Where asbestos turns up

Builders, electricians and plumbers need to know about asbestos before they work. HSE regularly reminds tradespeople to check before they start, and a survey report gives them that information.

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:

  • Demolition projects
  • Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
  • Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
  • The communal parts of blocks of flats

Non-domestic buildings, Poulner Infant School among them, come under the duty to manage asbestos; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.

Questions to ask before you book

  • If the price includes VAT
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • The report contents
  • Which areas and materials are covered

Read the checklist

For landlords, agents and businesses

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

For managing agents and freeholders in Hangersley, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

Hangersley: your questions answered

Do you cover small places like Hangersley?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Is asbestos common in Hangersley homes?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

Who needs a management survey?

Duty holders for workplaces and common parts generally need one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.

When can you start?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.

Do you work in Hangersley?

Yes, we do: our area includes Hangersley and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description for a quote.

Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?

It depends on your plans: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Describe the work and we’ll recommend one.

After we have finished in Hangersley

Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.

A few practical points:

  • For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
  • Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
  • Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
  • Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas

Avoid these

Book the survey before the builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.

Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.

What affects the price in Hangersley

Every quote reflects:

  • The building’s size and layout
  • Travel and parking
  • Which survey type fits your plans
  • The type of material and its condition

Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

What to photograph

Photo tips:

  • Approximate dimensions
  • The parking area
  • How we’d reach it
  • Damaged areas

Photos from a safe distance help: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

Your options compared

The cheapest survey isn’t always the best value. Check how many samples are included, which areas are covered and what the report contains, so you’re comparing like with like. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

  • Recommendations in plain English
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond

What we do and do not cover

Worth knowing before booking:

  • A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
  • The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.

Materials we deal with

Insulating board

Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, so a lab result is essential.

Textured coatings

We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, so you know before plastering or rewiring.

  • 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
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
