Limits to be aware of
So you know what to expect:
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it will not do before building work
- Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
What we deal with
- Garage and shed roofs
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Ceiling tiles
- Pipe lagging
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Artex and textured coatings
- Water tanks and flues
Asbestos survey near Lockerley
An asbestos survey tells you what asbestos is in a building, where it is and what state it’s in. We offer management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys in Lockerley, and samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis. From shops, offices and industrial units and shared halls, stairs and plant rooms, we cover garage roofs, textured ceilings and soffits and more.
Village properties around Lockerley often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Materials, one by one
Roofing felt and bitumen
Felt on flat roofs and outbuildings is sampled where it’s in scope.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings such as Artex were used on ceilings and walls, and older ones can contain a small amount of asbestos. Left alone they’re low risk; sanding or dry scraping is the problem.

Looking after things afterwards
Material in good condition often doesn’t need removing. The report says what should be checked, and how often it might need looking at again.
A few practical points:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
Things not to do
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.

- Send us the address and what you need the survey for
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- On the day we inspect, sample and photograph
- The lab analyses the samples
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Getting ready
- Let us know where we can park
- Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Options to consider in Lockerley
A homebuyer report isn’t an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it doesn’t generally take samples, so a pre-purchase asbestos survey fills that gap. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.

How do I get a quote?
Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
