Asbestos survey in Old Netley
About our asbestos survey in Old Netley
An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. We offer management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys in Old Netley, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. Typical materials include pipe lagging, soffits and garage roofs, and typical jobs are managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises and rented homes due for maintenance.
Village surveys around Old Netley can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

The process
Our surveyor inspects each area in scope and samples suspect materials, with each sample point damped and sealed afterwards. When we’re done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We recommend a survey type and quote for the agreed scope
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking and access
- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them
How to get a quote
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Afterwards
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Book the survey before booking builders
- Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Don’ts
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Typical surveys in Old Netley
Asbestos-containing materials were made for decades in many forms, so there’s no single place to look.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Public and community buildings
- Demolition projects
- Shops, offices and industrial units
Schools such as Bursledon Church of England Infant School are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos and keep a register.
Before you book anyone
- Whether extra samples cost more
- That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- The report contents
Choosing the right option
A homebuyer report isn’t an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not typically take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Why us?
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Practical recommendations
- Each material’s condition recorded

Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote reflects:
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- How big the building is
- The survey type
- How many outbuildings are included
Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Helping us quote
What to photograph:
- Approximate dimensions
- Cracks or breaks
- The parking area
- A clear close-up
Each job is priced individually. To start, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Limits to be aware of
Worth knowing before booking:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
- A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.
