About our asbestos survey in Lamberhurst Quarter
Whether you are buying, renovating or letting in Lamberhurst Quarter, a survey answers the asbestos question. We look, sample and record, and an accredited laboratory analyses the samples. Typical jobs include shared halls, stairs and plant rooms and workplaces built before 2000, including garage roofs, flues and textured ceilings.
Village properties around Lamberhurst Quarter often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

After we have finished in Lamberhurst Quarter
Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and what kind of work that is.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the scope matches
Don’ts
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Step by step
In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so those areas need to be empty. We go over the plan with you first, so you know what’s happening.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We agree the type of survey and the areas it covers, and send a quote
- We inspect the areas in scope and sample suspect materials
- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
How to prepare
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready

What it might be made of
Floor tiles and adhesive
Vinyl and thermoplastic floor tiles and black bitumen adhesive can contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and must be left alone in the meantime.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
For managing agents and freeholders in Lamberhurst Quarter, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.

Lamberhurst Quarter questions
Do you cover Lamberhurst Quarter from London?
Lamberhurst Quarter is about 33 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work on properties in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Send us the details of the building.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
Who needs a management survey?
Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings usually starts with one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.
Do I need an asbestos survey before renovating?
Yes, for the areas affected: HSG264 says refurbishment and demolition work should be preceded by a refurbishment and demolition survey.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Why people call us in Lamberhurst Quarter

You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Public and community buildings
- Rented homes between tenancies
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Demolition and strip-out
If you’re a landlord near Frant station, share asbestos information with trades before work.

Limits to be aware of
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it doesn’t:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
