Asbestos survey near North Hyde

Asbestos survey near North Hyde

What you’re planning in North Hyde decides the survey: managing the building, refurbishing it, knocking it down or buying it. We’ll match the survey to the plan. We often deal with boiler cupboard panels, flues and water tanks, and typical jobs are managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises and demolition and strip-out.

London buildings in areas like North Hyde have usually been altered many times, so a survey before work looks at later alterations as well as the original fabric. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Surveys around North Hyde

North Hyde is about 1 mile south of Southall, in Greater London. North Hyde is within our Greater London area, whatever the size of the job. We cover all 764 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. Our area stretches from North Hyde to London (about 12 miles away).

For a school like Norwood Green Infant and Nursery School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder. Planning work on an older building in North Hyde, whether near St Leonard's Church or elsewhere? A refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected should come first.

Surveys anywhere in UB2 and TW5 start with the postcode and some photos. That could mean a property on Lea Road, Fern Lane and Court Road or the roads around them. Being close to the A3005, North Hyde is simple for us to get to. We also carry out surveys in Heston (1 mile south), Norwood Green (1 mile east), Osterley (1 mile east), Lampton (1 mile south-east) and Hounslow West (2 miles south). Further out, we also cover London (12 miles east), City of Westminster (10 miles east), Marylebone (10 miles east), Kensington (8 miles east), St Pancras (12 miles east) and Shoreditch (13 miles east).

As a London location, North Hyde is inside the ULEZ, and parking and loading need planning: tell us about parking, permits and access when you ask for a quote.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in North Hyde must 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.

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

After we have finished in North Hyde

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

Once we are done:

  • In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
  • Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
  • Share any previous surveys or drawings
  • Keep pets and children out of the way on the day

Avoid these

Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.

Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.

Step by step

A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so those areas need to be empty. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions.

  1. Describe the property and the reason for the survey
  2. We agree the survey type and scope, and send a quote
  3. We inspect and sample the areas in scope
  4. An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
  5. We send the report and explain the findings

Before we arrive

  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
  • Dig out previous surveys
  • Keep children and pets away on the day

Prices and what affects them

The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:

  • The size of the job
  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • How many different materials need sampling
  • The building’s size and layout

There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Photos that help

For a quick quote, include:

  • Street parking nearby
  • A rough size or measurement
  • How we’d reach it
  • A wide shot showing where the material is

Every job is quoted in writing. Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 with the details.

What’s included, and what isn’t

A few things to be aware of:

  • Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
  • A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it won’t 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’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

What we deal with

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

Your options compared

A building survey for a purchase is not the same as an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it doesn’t usually take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

Why people choose us

  • Across London and the South East
  • Houses, flats and business premises
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Clear advice on your options

Read how we price jobs and published price ranges.

Doing it yourself?

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Materials we deal with

Roofing felt and bitumen

Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, typically bound in the bitumen.

Insulating board

It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, which is why sampling matters.

North Hyde: your questions answered

Do you survey schools and community buildings around North Hyde?

Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.

Is asbestos common in North Hyde homes?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in North Hyde can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

What will I get after the survey?

The materials found, their locations, the laboratory results, their condition, photographs and recommendations. Areas not accessed are listed too.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Is asbestos dangerous?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.

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 call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
