Asbestos survey for Sarisbury Green properties
An asbestos survey tells you what asbestos is in a building, where it is and what state it’s in. In Sarisbury Green, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. People often contact us about demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and purchases of older homes and buildings, including garage roofs, textured ceilings and boiler cupboard panels.
Sarisbury Green has a mix of older and newer homes, and any built or altered before 2000 can contain asbestos, so a survey before work is sensible. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

What it might be made of
Floor tiles and adhesive
Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, generally well bound in.
Doing it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
What it costs
The cost depends on:
- How much sampling is needed
- How much there is
- How many outbuildings are included
- The survey type
Our quotes are clear about VAT.
Sending photos
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- Street parking nearby
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Labels, if any
- The access route
Every job is quoted in writing. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 with the details.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.

Before we arrive

Duty holders and landlords in Sarisbury Green
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Sarisbury Green must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
What happens next
If it finds asbestos that work would disturb, the report explains what needs removing before work starts, and whether that work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
Avoid these
Do not take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
Options to consider in Sarisbury Green
An old survey may not be enough. A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so planned refurbishment usually needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.
