Asbestos survey in Knights Enham
There are two main types of survey, set out in HSE’s guide HSG264. A management survey covers a building in everyday use, while a refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before work starts. We’ll tell you which suits your plans in Knights Enham. Typical jobs include buying a property built before 2000 and demolition projects, involving textured ceilings, boiler cupboard panels and soffits.
Village properties around Knights Enham often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

After the job
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Once we’re done:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
Things not to do
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so there’s time to deal with anything it finds.
Good to know
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Pipe lagging
- Ceiling tiles
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Water tanks and flues
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Garage and shed roofs
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Artex and textured coatings

A closer look at the materials
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and it shouldn’t be disturbed.
Asbestos cement
Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.

FAQs for Knights Enham
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Knights Enham?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Do older homes in Knights Enham have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do I need an asbestos survey before renovating?
Yes, for the areas being worked on: HSE’s guidance calls for a refurbishment and demolition survey before the work starts.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
