About our asbestos survey in Hartley Wespall
A survey isn’t just a list of what’s there. It tells you which materials are fine to leave, which need watching and which should come out before work, in plain English. We often deal with floor tiles, water tanks and garage roofs, and typical jobs are demolition and strip-out and planned refurbishment work.
In a village like Hartley Wespall, surveys often include barns, stables, garages and outbuildings as well as the house, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. We only recommend work that’s needed.

Hartley Wespall questions
Do you cover Hartley Wespall from London?
Hartley Wespall is about 41 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos common in Hartley Wespall homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Hartley Wespall can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
What will I get after the survey?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Areas not accessed are listed too.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
No, they’re different: a homebuyer or building survey may note possible asbestos, but it doesn’t normally sample anything. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Hartley Wespall?
If the building is in normal use and you need to manage what’s there, a management survey. If you’re about to refurbish or demolish, a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected. Tell us your plans and we will advise.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Our quotes take into account:
- The survey type
- How many different materials need sampling

- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Workplaces built before 2000
- Public and community buildings
- Buying a property built before 2000

What your quote should include

- Areas included and excluded
- Suitable insurance for the work
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
Step by step
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. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We confirm whether you need a management, refurbishment and demolition or pre-purchase survey
- We carry out the survey on site
- Samples go to the laboratory
- You receive a clear written report with recommendations
Getting ready
- Let us know where we can park
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready

Should you do it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
After the job
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
After we have finished:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
Things not to do
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
