Asbestos survey near Itchingfield
Asbestos survey for Itchingfield properties
Not every older building in Itchingfield contains asbestos, and not all asbestos needs removing. The survey shows which applies to yours. Typical jobs include checks on rental property and the communal parts of blocks of flats, including flues, pipe lagging and floor tiles.
Around a village like Itchingfield, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Limits to be aware of
To be clear about the scope:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it won’t do before building work
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it

Materials we deal with
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. It’s licensed work.
Insulating board
Asbestos insulating board was used for panels, partitions, soffits, ceiling tiles and around heaters. Most work on it is licensed, so identifying it matters.

DIY and asbestos
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Questions from Itchingfield
Do you work near Christs Hospital station?
Yes. Christs Hospital station is about 1.5 miles east of Itchingfield, and we cover both.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Itchingfield?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Itchingfield?
It depends on your plans: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Describe the work and we will recommend one.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Who needs a management survey?
It’s normally needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Private landlords and homeowners often commission one too.
Afterwards
Any areas not accessed are listed, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
Avoid these
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Step by step
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we check behind, under and inside the parts being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and keeps dust to a minimum.
- Send us the address and what you need the survey for
- We recommend the right type of survey
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report sets out what was found and what to do next
How to prepare
- Move things out of the way carefully
- Let us know where we can park
- Ensure we can get to the area
How to get a quote
Photos from a safe distance help: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
