Asbestos survey near Middle Park
How asbestos survey works in Middle Park
A survey can cover a whole building or only the rooms being refurbished, whichever fits your plans in Middle Park. The scope is agreed in writing first, so there are no surprises. From shops, offices and industrial units and checks on rental property, we deal with floor tiles, garage roofs and soffits.
Properties in places like Middle Park have often been refitted and extended over the decades, so a survey before work looks at later alterations as well as the original fabric. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Should you do it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Middle Park must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
How we price an asbestos survey
Our quotes take into account:
- Travel and parking
- The survey scope
- Access to the area
- Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
Sending photos
Photo tips:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A clear close-up
- Labels, if any
- An overall view
Photos from a safe distance help: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
What it might be made of
Floor tiles and adhesive
We can sample tiles and adhesive separately, because one may contain asbestos when the other does not.
Asbestos cement
Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.
Middle Park questions
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Middle Park?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Is asbestos common in Middle Park homes?
If your home in Middle Park was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Do you work in flats?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

The scope of an asbestos survey
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
