Asbestos survey in Manor Park

A survey can cover a whole building or only the rooms being refurbished, whichever fits your plans in Manor Park. We agree the scope with you before we start, so you know exactly what’s covered. Typical jobs include purchases of older homes and buildings and demolition projects, involving flues, boiler cupboard panels and soffits.

London buildings in areas like Manor Park have generally been altered many times, so a survey before work looks at later alterations as well as the original fabric. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles and adhesive

Vinyl and thermoplastic floor tiles and black bitumen adhesive can contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.

Textured coatings

We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, so you know before plastering or rewiring.

Can I do it myself?

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

What it costs

We base our quote on:

  • What the material is and its state
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • The size of the job
  • The type of survey you need

There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Photos that help

What to photograph:

  • A photo of the whole area
  • Approximate dimensions
  • Labels, if any
  • Where we could park

Typical jobs in Manor Park include:

  • Planned refurbishment work
  • Shops, offices and industrial units
  • Common parts of flats and HMOs
  • Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report

Halls and leisure centres near Manor Park fall into the non-domestic category, where the duty to manage asbestos applies.

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • What the report or result will contain

What to check before booking

Limits to be aware of

The usual limits are:

  • The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
  • The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
  • Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Questions from Manor Park

Could my house in Manor Park contain asbestos?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you work in Manor Park despite London parking restrictions?

Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.

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.

After we’ve finished:

  • For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
  • Describe the work you’re planning, so the scope matches
  • Book the survey before booking builders
  • Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed

What to avoid

If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.

Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
