DIY and asbestos
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

How we price an asbestos survey
Prices vary with:
- Travel and parking
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- The type of survey you need
- How much there is
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
Photos that help
A few photos can save a site visit:
- A clear close-up
- A rough size or measurement
- The parking area
- A photo of the whole area
We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
After we’ve finished in Little Brickhill
After the survey you get a written report: what was found, where, the laboratory results, the condition of each material and our recommendations.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
Avoid these
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
What we do and don’t cover
A few things to be aware of:
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it is not enough before refurbishment
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Pipe lagging
- Water tanks and flues
- Artex and textured coatings
- Ceiling tiles
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Garage and shed roofs
- Floor tiles and adhesive

FAQs for Little Brickhill
Do you cover Little Brickhill from London?
We cover Little Brickhill, about 42 miles from central London.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Little Brickhill?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
Not really: a homebuyer or building survey may note possible asbestos, but it doesn’t typically sample anything. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Do you cover Little Brickhill?
Yes, Little Brickhill is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Little Brickhill?
If the building is in normal use and you need to manage what’s there, a management survey. If you’re about to refurbish or demolish, a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected. Tell us your plans and we will advise.
Does a survey leave holes?
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.
