For businesses and landlords in Little Hoddington
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Asbestos survey near Little Hoddington
An asbestos survey tells you what asbestos is in a building, where it is and what state it’s in. In Little Hoddington, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. Typical materials include pipe lagging, textured ceilings and water tanks, and typical jobs are kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects and surveys requested by builders before work.
Village properties around Little Hoddington often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

What happens next
Material in good condition often does not need removing. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.
Keeping things safe:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
Avoid these
Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement turns up on roofs, flues and outbuildings. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, as results can differ.
Your questions about an asbestos survey in Little Hoddington
Is asbestos common in Little Hoddington homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Little Hoddington may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Little Hoddington?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always.
Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?
That depends on what you are planning: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Tell us more and we will advise.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.
Should all asbestos be removed?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Who needs a management survey?
Duty holders for workplaces and common parts typically need one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.

Samples are bagged, labelled and logged against their location, before going to an accredited laboratory. Parking close by makes the day easier.

Doing it yourself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Which option is right?
Management or refurbishment and demolition? The first is for a building in normal use and involves minor intrusion; the second is fully intrusive and needed before work. Our guide explains which you need. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
