Asbestos survey in Holybourne

An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. In Holybourne, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. Whether it’s common parts of flats and HMOs and community buildings and halls, we deal with pipe lagging, textured ceilings and soffits and more.

Village surveys around Holybourne can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Which option is right?

A homebuyer report isn’t an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it doesn’t generally take samples, so a pre-purchase asbestos survey fills that gap. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.

Why people choose us

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
  • Reports that say what wasn’t accessed
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces

See how we price jobs or our cost guide.

What happens next

Any areas not accessed are listed, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.

If asbestos stays in the building:

  • Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
  • Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
  • Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the scope matches
  • For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts

What to avoid

If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.

Be clear about the work you are planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.

Prices and what affects them

When we quote, we look at:

  • The building’s size and layout
  • The number of materials to sample
  • How many samples are needed
  • Which survey type fits your plans

The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.

Sending photos

A few photos can save a site visit:

  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • A rough size or measurement
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • The access route

Unsure whether you need a test, a survey or removal? Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749, and we will recommend the right option.

Step by step

Each sample is sealed, labelled and recorded with its location, then sent to an accredited laboratory. Before we start, we walk through the job with you and answer any questions.

  1. Tell us about the building, its age and what you’re planning
  2. You get a written quote for the agreed scope
  3. The surveyor inspects and takes samples
  4. The samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  5. The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear

Before we arrive

  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Do not disturb the material before we get there
  • Keep the area clear of children and pets

What it might be made of

Floor tiles and adhesive

Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, because one may contain asbestos when the other does not.

Roofing felt and bitumen

Roof felts are checked where they fall within the survey.

Your questions about an asbestos survey in Holybourne

How far is Holybourne from London?

We cover Holybourne, about 44 miles from central London.

Do you come out to small villages like Holybourne?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

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.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

Do you work in flats?

Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Do landlords need an asbestos survey?

It’s normally needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Homeowners and landlords use them as well, to know what’s there before work.

Should you do it yourself?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

If you manage or own a block in Holybourne, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

What we deal with in Holybourne

Asbestos was used in British buildings for much of the 20th century, until it was fully banned in 1999. That is why so many buildings in Hampshire can contain it, from garage roofs and soffits to textured ceilings and floor tiles.

You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:

  • Pre-work surveys for trades
  • Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
  • Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
  • Public and community buildings

If you let flats or houses near Alton station, share asbestos information with trades before work.

Before booking anyone

  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • Areas included and excluded
  • That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
