Asbestos survey near Long Sutton
Good to know
What’s in and what’s out:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
Common materials
- Garage and shed roofs
- Water tanks and flues
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Pipe lagging
- Ceiling tiles
- Artex and textured coatings
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Soffits and porch canopies
Asbestos survey in Long Sutton
The point of a survey is more than a list. It tells you which materials are fine to leave, which need watching and which should come out before work. Typical jobs include rented homes between tenancies and community buildings and halls, involving floor tiles, flues and garage roofs.
Rural homes near Long Sutton have often been extended over generations, so we survey each part the work will disturb. We explain what we find in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Typical surveys in Long Sutton
Over time, materials deteriorate: a board or coating that was sound years ago may now be cracked or crumbling, which a survey records.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Schools, halls and community buildings
- Demolition projects
For a school like Long Sutton Church of England Primary School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register, and a management survey is normally where that starts.

Which option is right?
A low price can mean a narrow scope. Compare the areas covered, the sampling and the report, not just the price, before deciding. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Questions from Long Sutton
Do you work near Bentley (Hampshire) station?
Yes. Bentley (Hampshire) station is about 4.2 miles south-east of Long Sutton, and we cover both.
Do you cover Long Sutton from London?
Long Sutton is about 41 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
Not really: a homebuyer or building survey may note possible asbestos, but it does not normally sample anything. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?
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’ll advise.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally aren’t licensed.

We do: Long Sutton is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.

After the job
If it finds asbestos that work would disturb, the report explains what needs removing before work starts, and what kind of work that is.
A few practical points:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
Don’ts
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, because one may contain asbestos when the other does not.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, usually bound in the bitumen.
