Asbestos survey for Leigh Park
What’s included, and what is not
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it will not do before building work
- The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Asbestos survey in Leigh Park
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 help you choose the right one for your survey in Leigh Park. Typical jobs include shared halls, stairs and plant rooms and shops, offices and industrial units, involving soffits, water tanks and textured ceilings.
Leigh Park has a mix of older and newer homes, and anything altered before 2000 may contain asbestos, so a survey before work is sensible. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Towns and villages near Leigh Park
For landlords, agents and businesses
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
If your business premises in Leigh Park were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Where asbestos turns up
Most of the risk from asbestos comes from disturbing it without knowing it’s there. Surveying first means nobody disturbs it by accident.
In older properties, we often see:
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Rented homes due for maintenance
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Surveys requested by builders before work
Got an older property in Leigh Park, close to St Francis or further out? The rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.

Your questions about an asbestos survey in Leigh Park
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Leigh Park?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
How far is Leigh Park from London?
Leigh Park is about 58 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Leigh Park?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote.
After the job
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Keeping things safe:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Make sure you can pass the report to your builder
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Survey first, then book the trades
Avoid these
Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.
The process
On the day, the surveyor walks through the areas in scope, checks every suspect material and takes small samples, with each sample point damped and sealed afterwards. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and keeps dust to a minimum.
- Let us know the address and why you need a survey
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- The surveyor visits, inspects and takes small samples with controls
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Getting ready
- Move things out of the way carefully
- Find any old asbestos reports
- Ensure we can get to the area

Materials, one by one
Floor tiles and adhesive
We can sample tiles and adhesive separately, as results can differ.
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. The fibres are bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
