Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
Textured coatings such as Artex were used on ceilings and walls, and older ones can contain a small amount of asbestos. Left alone they’re low risk; sanding or dry scraping is the problem.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Felt on flat roofs and outbuildings is sampled where it’s in scope.
For businesses and landlords in Headley
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
What it costs
Quotes vary because of:
- Which survey type fits your plans
- How many samples are needed
- Parking and access charges
- The type of material and its condition
Our quotes are clear about VAT.

Limits to be aware of
Worth knowing before booking:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Water tanks and flues
- Garage and shed roofs
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Artex and textured coatings
- Pipe lagging
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Ceiling tiles
- Cement sheets and cladding
Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Headley: your questions answered
Do older homes in Headley have asbestos?
If your home in Headley was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Headley and the area around Liphook station?
Yes, we cover Headley and the area towards Liphook station, about 3.4 miles south.
What will I get after the survey?
The materials found, their locations, the laboratory results, their condition, photographs and recommendations. Areas not accessed are listed too.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Options to consider in Headley
A management survey or a refurbishment and demolition survey? The first is for a building in normal use and involves minor intrusion; the second is fully intrusive and needed before work. See our guide to which survey you need. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Looking after things afterwards
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Make sure you can pass the report to your builder
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
Things not to do
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
