Asbestos survey near Nash Street

Planning building work in Nash Street? Before refurbishment or demolition, HSE’s guidance is that the areas affected need a refurbishment and demolition survey, so any asbestos can be dealt with before the builders arrive. From shops, offices and industrial units and community buildings and halls, we deal with flues, water tanks and boiler cupboard panels and more.

Village surveys around Nash Street can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Afterwards

The survey ends with a written report: locations, results, condition and recommendations for every material in scope.

A few practical points:

  • Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
  • Book the survey before you book builders
  • Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
  • Share any previous surveys or drawings

What to avoid

Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.

Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.

The scope of an asbestos survey

Before booking, note that:

  • The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
  • A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
  • A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it, though we can quote for that too

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Common materials

  • Boiler cupboards and panels
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Roofing felt and bitumen
  • Water tanks and flues
  • Soffits and porch canopies
  • Cement sheets and cladding
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Pipe lagging
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Ceiling tiles

Service details

Materials we deal with

Roofing felt and bitumen

Roof felts are checked where they fall within the survey.

Pipe lagging

Lagging found in a survey is flagged clearly, and it shouldn’t be disturbed.

What we deal with in Nash Street

You cannot tell whether a material contains asbestos by looking at it. Only laboratory analysis of a sample gives a reliable answer.

Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

  • Demolition and strip-out
  • Schools, halls and community buildings
  • Planned refurbishment work
  • Workplaces built before 2000

For a school like Chiddingly Primary School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register.

What your quote should include

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Suitable insurance for the work
  • The report contents
  • The survey type, as defined in HSG264

What to check before you book

Landlords, managing agents and employers

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 know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • Travel and parking
  • How much sampling is needed
  • Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
  • The quantity or area

Our quotes are clear about VAT.

Photos that help

Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • A closer photo of the material, without touching it
  • Visible markings
  • Cracks or breaks
  • Approximate dimensions

Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.

Step by step

If a material is damaged, we will say so before we leave, rather than waiting for the report. While we work, the area stays out of bounds.

  1. Send us the address and what you need the survey for
  2. We confirm whether you need a management, refurbishment and demolition or pre-purchase survey
  3. On the day we inspect, sample and photograph
  4. The lab analyses the samples
  5. The report sets out what was found and what to do next

Getting ready

  • Clear the way to the work area
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them
  • Move things out of the way carefully

Common questions in Nash Street

Do older homes in Nash Street have asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you survey schools and community buildings around Nash Street?

Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.

Do you give written quotes?

Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.

Does a survey leave holes?

Very little, in a management survey: small samples are taken and the points sealed. A refurbishment survey is intrusive, which is why the rooms must be empty.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Do you work in Nash Street?

Yes, we do: Nash Street is within the area we cover in East Sussex. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.

Do landlords need an asbestos survey?

Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings normally starts with one. Many landlords of private homes find one useful before maintenance.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We will identify it and advise on removal.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
