Asbestos survey near Lillingstone Lovell
Any building in Lillingstone Lovell built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. The way to know for sure is a survey: we inspect, sample suspect materials and write up what we find. Typical jobs include purchases of older homes and buildings and demolition of garages, extensions and buildings, involving water tanks, pipe lagging and textured ceilings.
Around a village like Lillingstone Lovell, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings, each scoped separately if needed. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

After the job
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Book the survey before booking builders
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
Things not to do
Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes vary because of:

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Helpful guides
What we do and don’t cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.
What we deal with
- Water tanks and flues
- Pipe lagging
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Ceiling tiles
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs

A closer look at the materials
Roofing felt and bitumen
Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, typically bound in the bitumen.
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.
Why people call us in Lillingstone Lovell
Many buildings have been extended, refitted and repaired over the years, so asbestos can turn up in later additions as well as original features, so a survey checks the whole scope, not just obvious spots.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:
- Checks on rental property
- Schools, halls and community buildings
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
- The communal parts of blocks of flats
Altering an older house in Lillingstone Lovell, wherever it is? The rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.
