The scope of an asbestos survey
Worth knowing before you book:
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it will not do before building work
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.

Asbestos survey for Horseport properties
An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. We offer management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys in Horseport, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. From purchases of older homes and buildings and surveys requested by builders before work, we cover soffits, textured ceilings and floor tiles.
Village surveys around Horseport can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Your options compared
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. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Your questions about an asbestos survey in Horseport
Do you cover small places like Horseport?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you survey a school or hall near Horseport?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
What does the survey report include?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Areas not accessed are listed too.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Duty holders and landlords in Horseport

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- You get the report, and we talk you through it

Afterwards
Any areas not accessed are listed, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.
Keeping things safe:
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Make sure you can pass the report to your builder
- Book the survey before booking builders
Don’ts
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Please don’t break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
