Asbestos survey near Leamouth
Which option is right?
A homebuyer report isn’t an asbestos survey. It might mention possible asbestos without testing anything, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

Leamouth questions
Can you work in Leamouth with London’s parking rules?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Can you survey a school or hall near Leamouth?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Who needs a management survey?
Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats generally do. Homeowners and landlords use them as well, to know what’s there before work.
Does a survey leave holes?
Only minimally for a management survey: small samples are taken and the points sealed. A refurbishment and demolition survey opens up the areas being worked on, by design.
What it costs
When we quote, we look at:
- How many different materials need sampling
- Location, parking and any London charges

Typical surveys in Leamouth
Asbestos went into roofing, boards, coatings, tiles, insulation and more, so there is no single place to look.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
- Rented homes due for maintenance
Public buildings around Leamouth, such as leisure centres and halls, are non-domestic premises, where the duty to manage asbestos applies.
Before you book anyone
- How many samples are included
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- The report contents
- Which laboratory analyses samples
What we do and don’t cover
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and does not cover:
- A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
Materials we see
- Garage and shed roofs
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Water tanks and flues
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Ceiling tiles
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Pipe lagging
- Artex and textured coatings
Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
What happens next
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
After we’ve finished:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
Things not to do
Book the survey before the builders, so there’s time to deal with anything it finds.
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
