What’s included, and what isn’t
So you know what to expect:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Ceiling tiles
- Pipe lagging
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Artex and textured coatings
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Garage and shed roofs
- Water tanks and flues
A closer look at the materials
Textured coatings
Older textured ceilings can contain asbestos. Left alone they’re low risk; sanding or dry scraping is the problem.
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, which is why sampling matters.

Helpful guides
Which option is right?
A survey or a sample test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey covers everything in scope, including materials nobody had spotted. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
Why people choose us
- Covering London and the South East
- Each material’s condition recorded
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone

Where asbestos turns up
Most of the risk from asbestos comes from disturbing it without knowing it’s there. A survey removes the guesswork before work starts.
In older properties, we often see:
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
- Checks on rental property
A school such as Garth Hill College counts as non-domestic premises, where the law requires asbestos to be managed, and a management survey is generally where that starts.

Jealott's Hill questions
Do you work near Bracknell station?
Yes. Bracknell station is about 2.8 miles south of Jealott's Hill, and we cover both.
Do you come out to small villages like Jealott's Hill?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Who needs a management survey?
Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings typically starts with one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
How quickly can you come out?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
How can I get a price?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Prices and what affects them
The cost depends on:
- How easy it is to reach
- What the material is and its state
- The survey type
- How many outbuildings are included
There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
Photos that help
Helpful photos:
- The parking area
- Damaged areas
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it

DIY and asbestos
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
Duty holders and landlords in Jealott's Hill
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
