Asbestos survey for Moulsoe properties
Planning building work in Moulsoe? HSE’s guidance calls for a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas being worked on before the work starts, so nothing hidden is disturbed once work begins. Typical jobs include public and community buildings and rented homes between tenancies, including pipe lagging, garage roofs and soffits.
Around a village like Moulsoe, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

A closer look at the materials
Roofing felt and bitumen
Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, usually bound in the bitumen.
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. Work on it is licensed.
Which option is right?
A survey or a sample test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey looks at the whole building or work area and finds materials you might not have noticed. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.
Why us?
- London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
- Reports that say what wasn’t accessed
- Each material’s condition recorded
- Accredited laboratory results
See our prices page or our cost guide.
What affects the price in Moulsoe
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
- How easy it is to reach
- How big the building is
- What the material is and its state
Every quote says whether VAT is included.
Photos that help
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Approximate dimensions
- Cracks or breaks

For landlords, agents and businesses
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
What we deal with in Moulsoe
Asbestos was used in British buildings for much of the 20th century, until it was fully banned in 1999. So buildings across Milton Keynes can contain it in roofs, soffits, ceilings, floors and boiler cupboards.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Community buildings and halls
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
Planning work on an older building in Moulsoe, whether near Church of St Mary or elsewhere? Get the work areas surveyed before anything is opened up.
What to look for in a quote
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- Areas included and excluded
- What you will receive in writing
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
Afterwards
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
What to avoid
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.
Do not take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Questions from Moulsoe
Do you cover Moulsoe and the area around Woburn Sands station?
Yes. Woburn Sands station is about 3.5 miles south of Moulsoe, and we cover both.
Is asbestos common in Moulsoe homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. We take it to a permitted site with paperwork.
What does the survey report include?
The materials found, their locations, the laboratory results, their condition, photographs and recommendations. Areas not accessed are listed too.
- 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
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
