Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. The fibres are bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, as results can differ.
About our asbestos survey in Hangleton
Whether you’re buying, renovating or letting in Hangleton, a survey answers the asbestos question. Our surveyor inspects, samples and records, and an accredited laboratory analyses the samples. Whether it’s pre-purchase checks on older properties and managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises, we cover garage roofs, flues and soffits.
In a smaller place like Hangleton, surveys are often for family homes before renovation, with garages and outbuildings included, because cement sheet roofs are common on older garages. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Prices and what affects them
What drives the price:
- How much there is
- Parking and access charges
- The type of material and its condition
- The size and age of the building
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Photos that help
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- Cracks or breaks
- A clear close-up
- An idea of size
- A wide shot showing where the material is
You’ll get a written quote. Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 with the details, including any survey or test you already have.
Questions from Hangleton
Do you cover Hangleton and the area around Portslade station?
Yes. Portslade station is about 1 mile south of Hangleton, and we cover both.
Do you cover Hangleton from London?
We cover Hangleton, about 45 miles from central London.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Hangleton?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
What does the survey report include?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Areas not accessed are listed too.
Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?
That depends on what you are planning: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Tell us more and we’ll advise.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

- Tell us about the building, its age and why you need a survey
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- Our surveyor inspects and takes small samples of suspect materials
- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- We send the report with results and recommendations
How to prepare

- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Find any old asbestos reports
Getting a price
Include any existing survey or test when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.
Helpful guides
Limits to be aware of
A few things to be aware of:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it, though we can quote for that too
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Ceiling tiles
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Pipe lagging
- Water tanks and flues
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs
Your options compared
It can be tempting to start work without a survey. Finding asbestos halfway through a job means stopping work, extra cost and possible exposure, which is why surveying first tends to save money. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Why choose us
- Covering London and the South East
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Written quotes that say what’s included
- Houses, flats and business premises
After we have finished in Hangleton
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
After we have finished:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Survey first, then book the trades
Things not to do
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Book the survey before the builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Common reasons for surveys in Hangleton
For workplaces and common parts, the law requires asbestos to be identified and its risk assessed. Most duty holders commission a survey to meet that duty.
People normally contact us about one of these:
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Demolition and strip-out
- Pre-work surveys for trades
A school such as Hangleton Primary School counts as non-domestic premises, where the law requires asbestos to be managed; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.
