Choosing the right option
It can be tempting to start work without a survey. Finding asbestos halfway through a job means stopping work, extra cost and possible exposure, so surveying first is generally cheaper in the end. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

How asbestos survey works in Rotherwick
If you’re buying a home or building in Rotherwick from before 2000, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, so you can plan renovations with your eyes open. Whether it’s kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects and common parts of flats and HMOs, we cover flues, water tanks and soffits and more.
Village surveys around Rotherwick can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

After the job
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
Some practical advice:
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Book the survey before booking builders
Don’ts
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.

What’s included, and what is not
Worth knowing before you book:
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos

Do you survey schools and community buildings around Rotherwick?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
How far is Rotherwick from London?

Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins cannot take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

Can I do it myself?
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
