Asbestos survey for Hatch Warren
Asbestos survey in Hatch Warren
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building in Hatch Warren, or the shared parts of a block of flats, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. A management survey is normally the starting point. We often deal with boiler cupboard panels, pipe lagging and soffits, and typical jobs are community buildings and halls and demolition and strip-out.
A survey in Hatch Warren typically covers the house and its outbuildings, as outbuildings often have cement roofs. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

After we have finished in Hatch Warren
If it finds asbestos that work would disturb, the report explains what needs removing before work starts, and what kind of work that is.
Going forward:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared 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 there is time to deal with anything it finds.
What we do and don’t cover
So you know what to expect:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, 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
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Responsibilities for owners
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Common questions in Hatch Warren
Do you cover Hatch Warren from London?
Hatch Warren is about 48 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Hatch Warren?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings normally are not licensed.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Hatch Warren?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
What it might be made of
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, typically bound in the bitumen.
Asbestos cement
Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. Its condition matters as much as its presence.
How it works
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. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.
- Tell us about the building, its age and what you’re planning
- We agree the survey type and scope, and send a quote
- We inspect and sample the areas in scope
- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- You get the report, and we talk you through it
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
