Asbestos survey for Ramsdell
Asbestos survey for Ramsdell properties
An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. In Ramsdell, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. Typical jobs include rented homes between tenancies and demolition and strip-out, including boiler cupboard panels, water tanks and floor tiles.
Around a village like Ramsdell, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

How we price an asbestos survey
Prices vary with:
- The survey scope
- Which survey type fits your plans
- How big the building is
- Location, parking and any London charges
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
Sending photos
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- Cracks or breaks
- Visible markings
- A photo of the whole area
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
Photos and a postcode help us quote quickly: call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
Limits to be aware of
Before you book, note that:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it is not enough before refurbishment
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.

Options to consider in Ramsdell
A building survey for a purchase isn’t the same as an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it doesn’t generally take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

After the job
If there are areas we couldn’t reach, the report lists them clearly, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.
Once we’re done:
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Make sure you can pass the report to your builder
Don’ts
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Do not take samples yourself before the survey: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.

Common questions in Ramsdell
Do you work near Bramley (Hants) station?
Yes. Bramley (Hants) station is about 4.2 miles east of Ramsdell, and we cover both.
Do you cover Ramsdell from London?
Ramsdell is about 47 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
It’s generally needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
Not really: homebuyer reports may mention possible asbestos without testing anything. That’s what a pre-purchase asbestos survey is for.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.

Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. It’s licensed work.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
