Asbestos help in Hannington

The scope of an asbestos survey

We’re upfront about what’s included:

  • Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
  • The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common materials

  • Cement sheets and cladding
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Soffits and porch canopies
  • Ceiling tiles
  • Roofing felt and bitumen
  • Pipe lagging
  • Boiler cupboards and panels
  • Water tanks and flues

Duty holders and landlords in Hannington

If you manage or own a block in Hannington, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Prices and what affects them

We base our quote on:

  • The number of materials to sample
  • The survey scope
  • The type of material and its condition
  • How easy it is to reach

Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

What to photograph

Photo tips:

  • Approximate dimensions
  • An overall view
  • Labels, if any
  • Street parking nearby

Photos from a safe distance help: send them through our contact page.

  • Surveys requested by builders before work
  • Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
  • Workplaces built before 2000
  • Demolition and strip-out

  • What you’ll receive in writing

How to choose an asbestos contractor

Materials we deal with

Pipe lagging

Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. Work on it is licensed.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.

Questions from Hannington

Do you cover small places like Hannington?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do you work near Overton station?

Yes. Overton station is about 3.4 miles south-west of Hannington, and we cover both.

Do I need an asbestos survey before renovating?

Yes, for the areas affected: HSE’s guidance (HSG264) is that refurbishment and demolition work needs a refurbishment and demolition survey first.

Do you work in flats?

Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

Does someone need to be there?

Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.

Can you quote from photos?

Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.

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.

After we have finished in Hannington

Any areas not accessed are listed, so they’re treated as if they contain asbestos until checked.

Keeping things safe:

  • Have any old surveys or plans ready
  • Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
  • Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
  • For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts

Things not to do

Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.

Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.

Which option is right?

An existing survey might not cover your plans. If it was a management survey, it will not have looked inside the fabric of the building where you are about to work, so planned refurbishment generally needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Why choose us

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Houses, flats and business premises
  • Quotes that spell out the scope

How we work

In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so those areas need to be empty. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and use controls to keep dust down.

  1. Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
  2. We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
  3. On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
  4. Samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis
  5. You receive a written report with locations, results, condition and recommendations

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Let us know where we can park
  • Find any old asbestos reports
