How asbestos survey works in Rogate
Not every older building in Rogate contains asbestos, and not all asbestos needs removing. The survey shows which applies to yours, so you can plan sensibly. People often contact us about the communal parts of blocks of flats and refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms, including floor tiles, pipe lagging and water tanks.
Village properties around Rogate often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Materials, one by one
Roofing felt and bitumen
Bitumen felts and mastics can contain asbestos, generally bound in the bitumen.
Textured coatings
Older textured ceilings can contain asbestos. They’re low risk left alone, but shouldn’t be sanded or scraped dry.

What else we do in Rogate
What’s included, and what isn’t
We are upfront about what’s included:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.

- Garage and shed roofs
- Pipe lagging

Rogate questions
Do you cover small places like Rogate?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is asbestos common in Rogate homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Who needs a management survey?
Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings normally starts with one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Rogate?
We do: commercial, industrial and community buildings. Send us the size, use and age of the building.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
Not really: a homebuyer report can flag suspected asbestos without testing it. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Duty holders and landlords in Rogate
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
If you manage or own a block in Rogate, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
How it works
In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we check behind, under and inside the parts being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. Parking close by makes the day easier.
- Start by telling us about the property and your plans
- We recommend a survey type and quote for the agreed scope
- We inspect the areas in scope and sample suspect materials
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear
How to prepare
- Let us know where we can park
- Ensure we can get to the area
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone

We quote each job individually, because no two are the same. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Helpful guides
Afterwards
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
Things not to do
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone, and keep trades away from them.
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.

Prices and what affects them
We base our quote on:
- Access to the area
- The quantity or area
- How much sampling is needed
- How big the building is
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send:
- A rough size or measurement
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- The parking area
- The access route
Include any existing survey or test when you use our quote form or call 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.
Options to consider in Rogate
Do you need a full survey, or just a test? A test answers the question for one or two specific materials; a survey covers everything in scope, including materials nobody had spotted. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
