Asbestos survey near North Stoneham

Buying an older property in North Stoneham? A pre-purchase survey shows what asbestos is present, and its condition, before you commit, which helps you plan and budget for any work. Typical materials include flues, floor tiles and water tanks, and people usually contact us about rented homes between tenancies and demolition and strip-out.

Village houses like those in North Stoneham have often been extended and altered over time, so we survey each part the work will disturb. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

A management survey or a refurbishment and demolition survey? The first is for a building in normal use and involves minor intrusion; the second is fully intrusive and needed before work. Our guide explains which you need. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.

FAQs for North Stoneham

Do you come out to small villages like North Stoneham?

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

Can you survey a school or hall near North Stoneham?

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

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice.

What if the weather’s bad?

It depends on the job: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

What paperwork will I get?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Do you survey commercial buildings in North Stoneham?

Yes, we do: shops, offices, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls. Send us the size, use and age of the building.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

For businesses and landlords in North Stoneham

If you manage or own a block in North Stoneham, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

What we do and don’t cover

What’s in and what’s out:

  • A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it
  • A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work
  • A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it

More about this service

Can I do it myself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

After the job

The survey ends with a written report: what was found, where, the laboratory results, the condition of each material and our recommendations.

Going forward:

  • Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
  • Describe the work you are planning, so the scope matches
  • Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
  • Keep pets and children out of the way on the day

What to avoid

If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.

Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.

Materials we deal with

Roofing felt and bitumen

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

Pipe lagging

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

Step by step

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 the rooms must be cleared. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we will do before we start.

  1. Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
  2. We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
  3. Our surveyor carries out the inspection and sampling
  4. Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
  5. The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Find any old asbestos reports
