About our asbestos survey in High Salvington

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building in High Salvington, 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 generally the starting point. From workplaces built before 2000 and rented homes between tenancies, we cover soffits, floor tiles and textured ceilings.

Homes in areas like High Salvington range from older cottages to post-war and later houses, and anything altered before 2000 may contain asbestos. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

Weighing up your options

A building survey for a purchase isn’t the same as an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not normally take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

DIY and asbestos

With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

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.

Your questions about an asbestos survey in High Salvington

How far is High Salvington from London?

High Salvington is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area.

Can you survey a school or hall near High Salvington?

Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.

How do I get a quote?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.

Does a survey leave holes?

A management survey takes small samples, which are sealed afterwards. A refurbishment survey opens up the areas being worked on, which is why they need to be empty.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

Looking after things afterwards

Material in good condition often does not need removing. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.

Once we’re done:

In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
Book the survey before booking builders
Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the scope matches

What to avoid

Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.

If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.

Materials, one by one

Textured coatings

Textured ceilings are sampled where they’re in scope, before plasterers or electricians start.

Insulating board

It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, which is why sampling matters.

Limits to be aware of

Before booking, note that:

Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
