Asbestos survey near Pitch Green
What happens next
Material in good condition often does not need removing. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.
Some practical advice:
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Survey first, then book the trades
Avoid these
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.

Questions from Pitch Green
How far is Pitch Green from London?
We cover Pitch Green, about 37 miles from central London.
Do you cover Pitch Green and the area around Princes Risborough station?
Yes. Princes Risborough station is about 1.4 miles east of Pitch Green, and we cover both.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.
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.
Do you cover Pitch Green?
We do: Pitch Green is within the area we cover in Buckinghamshire. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
What it might be made of
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, so a lab result is essential.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. The fibres are bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
How it works
The surveyor photographs and records each material’s condition, which goes into the report. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so please keep children and pets away.
- Start by telling us about the property and your plans
- We agree the type of survey and the areas it covers, and send a quote
- We inspect the areas in scope and sample suspect materials
- Samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis
- We send the report with results and recommendations

For landlords, agents and businesses
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.
If you manage or own a block in Pitch Green, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
Options to consider in Pitch Green
A building survey for a purchase isn’t the same as an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not generally take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
Why us?
- Houses, flats and business premises
- Covering London and the South East
- Condition assessed for every material
- Written quotes that say what’s included

Why people call us in Pitch Green
Many buildings have been extended, refitted and repaired over the years, so asbestos may be in later alterations as much as the original structure, so a survey checks the whole scope, not just obvious spots.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Rented homes between tenancies
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
For rented homes close to Princes Risborough station, asbestos information should be ready for contractors before maintenance.
What your quote should include
- VAT, clearly stated
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
- What the report or result will contain
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
