Need an asbestos survey in Pyle Hill?

What’s included, and what isn’t

The usual limits are:

  • A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it
  • A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Doing it yourself?

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Materials we deal with

Insulating board

Asbestos insulating board was used for panels, partitions, soffits, ceiling tiles and around heaters. Most work on insulating board is licensed, so identifying it matters.

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement turns up on roofs, flues and outbuildings. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.

Pyle Hill questions

Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you cover small places like Pyle Hill?

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

Do you work in Pyle Hill?

We do: Pyle Hill is within the area we cover in Surrey. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you are worried about your health.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

Do I need an asbestos survey before renovating?

Yes, for the areas affected: HSE’s guidance (HSG264) is that refurbishment and demolition work needs a refurbishment and demolition survey first.

What does the survey report include?

Every suspect material in the agreed scope: location, laboratory result, condition, photographs and our recommendation.

What does licensed work mean?

Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

Typical surveys in Pyle Hill

Asbestos went into roofing, boards, coatings, tiles, insulation and more, so there’s no single place to look.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Planned refurbishment work
  • Pre-purchase checks on older properties
  • Demolition projects
  • The communal parts of blocks of flats

Got an older property in Pyle Hill, close to All Souls' Church or further out? Survey the areas you are working on before work starts.

Before you book anyone

  • The number of samples
  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • Areas included and excluded
  • What the report or result will contain

Choosing an asbestos contractor

How it works

Our surveyor inspects each area in scope and samples suspect materials, wetting and sealing each sample point to keep dust down. While we work, the area stays out of bounds.

  1. Tell us about the building, its age and what you’re planning
  2. We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
  3. The surveyor inspects and takes samples
  4. Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
  5. We send the report and explain the findings

Preparing for the visit

  • Find any old asbestos reports
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
  • Mention any damage before we arrive

After we’ve finished in Pyle Hill

If there are areas we couldn’t reach, the report lists them clearly, so they’re treated as if they contain asbestos until checked.

Going forward:

  • Describe the work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
  • Have any old surveys or plans ready
  • Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
  • Book the survey before you book builders

Don’ts

Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
