North Camp questions
Do you cover North Camp and the area around North Camp station?
Yes. North Camp station is about 0.9 miles east of North Camp, and we cover both.
Can you survey a school or hall near North Camp?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
We do: commercial, industrial and community buildings. Tell us about the building and what you need.
How quickly can you come out?
It depends on the job and our diary. You will get available dates with the quote.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Is a survey needed before building work in North Camp?
Yes, for the areas being worked on: HSE’s guidance calls for a refurbishment and demolition survey before the work starts.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Asbestos survey near North Camp
Planning building work in North Camp? 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 materials include pipe lagging, flues and garage roofs, and typical jobs are the communal parts of blocks of flats and refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms.
In places like North Camp, surveys usually cover a house plus its garage and outbuildings, because cement sheet roofs are common on older garages. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in North Camp, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
What we deal with in North Camp
Contractors working on buildings need to know where asbestos is before they start. HSE’s campaigns aimed at tradespeople make this point repeatedly, and a survey report gives them that information.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Community buildings and halls
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
Non-domestic buildings, St Mark's Church of England Aided Primary School among them, come under the duty to manage asbestos, and a management survey is usually where that starts.

After the job
If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.
Going forward:
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
What to avoid
Book the survey before the builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.
Materials, one by one
Pipe lagging
Lagging found in a survey is flagged clearly, and it shouldn’t be disturbed.
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.
Good to know
What’s in and what’s out:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Ceiling tiles
- Pipe lagging
- Artex and textured coatings
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Water tanks and flues
- Garage and shed roofs
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Soffits and porch canopies
