Asbestos survey in Ingrams Green
Asbestos survey in Ingrams Green
A survey can cover a whole building or only the rooms being refurbished, whichever fits your plans in Ingrams Green. The scope is agreed in writing first, so there are no surprises. People often contact us about workplaces built before 2000 and contractors’ requests for an asbestos report, involving garage roofs, flues and textured ceilings.
Village properties around Ingrams Green often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

Looking after things afterwards
Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and whether that work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Survey first, then book the trades
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
Don’ts
Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

How we price an asbestos survey
Prices vary with:
- Which survey type fits your plans
- The size and age of the building
- What the material is and its state
- The number of materials to sample
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Photos that help
Photos often save us a visit:
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- The access route
- Visible markings
- A close-up from a safe distance
Include any existing survey or test when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Choosing the right option
A homebuyer report is not an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not generally take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. Our quotes are clear about VAT.
Why us?
- Recommendations in plain English
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- The right survey for your plans
- Records for your files

Helpful guides
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles and adhesive
Vinyl and thermoplastic floor tiles and black bitumen adhesive can contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.
Textured coatings
We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, before plasterers or electricians start.
Can I do it myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What we do and do not cover
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
Materials we see
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Water tanks and flues
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Ceiling tiles
- Pipe lagging
