About our asbestos survey in Langrish
Duty holders for workplaces and common parts in Langrish must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. The usual first step is a management survey. Whether it’s public and community buildings and demolition projects, we cover floor tiles, pipe lagging and boiler cupboard panels.
Village houses like those in Langrish have often been extended and altered over time, so a refurbishment survey before work checks every part being touched. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Helpful guides
Materials, one by one
Floor tiles and adhesive
Vinyl and thermoplastic floor tiles and black bitumen adhesive can contain asbestos. They’re often hidden under newer flooring.
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. Work on it is licensed.
Langrish: your questions answered
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Langrish?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Do older homes in Langrish have asbestos?
Any home in Langrish built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
No, they’re different: a homebuyer report can flag suspected asbestos without testing it. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Will the survey damage the property?
Sampling leaves small, sealed sample points. A refurbishment and demolition survey is intrusive by design, because it has to look inside the fabric of the building.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats typically do. Homeowners and landlords use them as well, to know what’s there before work.
Choosing the right option
An old survey may not be enough. A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so planned refurbishment typically needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you manage or own a block in Langrish, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Typical surveys in Langrish
Materials age: something in good condition when it was fitted may now be damaged, and the survey assesses condition.
These come up again and again:
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
- Surveys requested by builders before work
Altering an older house in Langrish, wherever it is? A refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected should come first.
What to look for in a quote
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- How many samples are included
- Survey methods in line with HSG264
After the job
If it finds asbestos that work would disturb, the report explains what needs removing before work starts, and whether that work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed.
Once we’re done:
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Survey first, then book the trades
Things not to do
Book the survey before the builders, so there’s time to deal with anything it finds.
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
