How asbestos survey works in Heathfield
The type of survey you need in Heathfield depends on what happens next: normal use and maintenance, refurbishment, demolition or a purchase. We’ll match the survey to the plan. Typical materials include textured ceilings, garage roofs and soffits, and people usually contact us about surveys requested by builders before work and checks on rental property.
In places like Heathfield, surveys typically cover a house plus its garage and outbuildings, because cement sheet roofs are common on older garages. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Heathfield: your questions answered
How far is Heathfield from London?
We cover Heathfield, about 66 miles from central London.
Can you survey a school or hall near Heathfield?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What will I get after the survey?
The materials found, their locations, the laboratory results, their condition, photographs and recommendations. Any areas we couldn’t access are listed.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If your business premises in Heathfield were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
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
These are the main things that affect the price of an asbestos survey:
- Which survey type fits your plans
- The type of material and its condition
- How much sampling is needed
- How easy it is to reach
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Photos that help
For a quick quote, include:
- A rough size or measurement
- Labels, if any
- A picture of the whole area
- Damaged areas

Materials we deal with
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, normally bound in the bitumen.
Textured coatings
Textured ceilings are sampled where they’re in scope, before plasterers or electricians start.
Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Looking after things afterwards
If there are areas we couldn’t reach, the report lists them clearly, so they’re treated as if they contain asbestos until checked.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
Don’ts
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
