About our asbestos survey in Hunton
What you are planning in Hunton decides the survey: normal use and maintenance, refurbishment, demolition or a purchase. We will match the survey to the plan. Typical jobs include demolition projects and shops, offices and industrial units, including flues, garage roofs and floor tiles.
Around a village like Hunton, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

After the job
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
To avoid problems in future:
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
What to avoid
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
What else we do in Hunton
Prices and what affects them
The cost depends on:
- Access to the area
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Lofts, voids and outbuildings to include
- The quantity or area
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Photos that help
Helpful photos:
- Labels, if any
- A close-up from a safe distance
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A photo of the whole area
For a quote, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.
Materials we deal with
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. Work on it is licensed.
Floor tiles and adhesive
Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often hidden under newer flooring.
Which option is right?
The cheapest survey is not always the best value. Compare the areas covered, the sampling and the report, not just the price, before deciding. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.

- Practical recommendations
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond

Do you cover small places like Hunton?

Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
What will I get after the survey?

Do you cover Hunton?
Yes. We cover Hunton and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Send us the postcode for a quote.
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. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Can I do it myself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
What we do and do not cover
What’s in and what’s out:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Garage and shed roofs
- Pipe lagging
- Ceiling tiles
- Artex and textured coatings
- Water tanks and flues
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Floor tiles and adhesive
What we deal with in Hunton
Asbestos went into roofing, boards, coatings, tiles, insulation and more, so there’s no single place to look.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
If you have an older property in Hunton, near Church of St James or anywhere else, the rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.
What your quote should include
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- Which areas and materials are covered
- The survey type, as defined in HSG264
