Weighing up your options

An existing survey might not cover your plans. If it was a management survey, it will not have looked inside the fabric of the building where you are about to work, so refurbishment needs a fresh, intrusive survey of the work areas. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Why people choose us

  • Condition ratings, not just a list
  • Reports that say what wasn’t accessed
  • Practical recommendations
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

About our asbestos survey in North Hayling

An asbestos survey tells you what asbestos is in a building, where it is and what state it’s in. We offer management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys in North Hayling, and samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis. Typical jobs include checks on rental property and managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises, involving flues, water tanks and boiler cupboard panels.

Village surveys around North Hayling can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Materials we deal with

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. The fibres are bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.

Roofing felt and bitumen

Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, usually bound in the bitumen.

DIY and asbestos

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in North Hayling, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

How we work

In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so those areas need to be empty. Our team uses the right protective equipment, and use controls to keep dust down.

  1. Tell us about the building, its age and why you need a survey
  2. We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
  3. Our surveyor inspects and takes small samples of suspect materials
  4. An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
  5. The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear

Preparing for the visit

  • Move things out of the way carefully
  • Keep the area clear of children and pets
  • Mention any parking restrictions

FAQs for North Hayling

Do you work near Warblington station?

Yes, we cover North Hayling and the area towards Warblington station, about 2.1 miles north.

Do you come out to small villages like North Hayling?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Is a survey needed before building work in North Hayling?

HSE’s guidance is that a refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before refurbishment or demolition work, for the areas affected.

Will the survey damage the property?

Sampling leaves small, sealed sample points. A refurbishment survey opens up the areas being worked on, which is why they need to be empty.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area in the job.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.

After we’ve finished in North Hayling

Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.

A few practical points:

  • Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
  • In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
  • Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
  • Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the scope matches

Things not to do
