What else we do in Rose Hill
What happens
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere.

- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You receive a clear written report with recommendations
Getting ready
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
- Mention any parking restrictions
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Materials we deal with
Roofing felt and bitumen
Roof felts are checked where they fall within the survey.
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. The fibres are bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.
Weighing up your options
Do you need a full survey, or just a test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey looks at the whole building or work area and finds materials you might not have noticed. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
What you get
- Reports that say what wasn’t accessed
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Accredited laboratory results

Your questions about an asbestos survey in Rose Hill
Do you cover Rose Hill and the area around Taplow station?
Yes. Taplow station is about 1.7 miles south of Rose Hill, and we cover both.
Can you survey a school or hall near Rose Hill?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
Is a survey needed before building work in Rose Hill?
Yes, for the areas affected: HSE’s guidance (HSG264) is that refurbishment and demolition work needs a refurbishment and demolition survey first.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Rose Hill?
That depends on what you are planning: normal use and management calls for a management survey, while refurbishment or demolition needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected. Tell us more and we will advise.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Limits to be aware of
Before booking, note that:
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

- Cement sheets and cladding
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Pipe lagging
- Artex and textured coatings
- Soffits and porch canopies

After the job
Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and what kind of work that is.
Some practical advice:
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
Things not to do
Book the survey before the builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
