Asbestos survey for Shreding Green properties

Planning building work in Shreding Green? HSE’s guidance calls for a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas being worked on before the work starts, so any asbestos can be dealt with before the builders arrive. People often contact us about shops, offices and industrial units and rented homes due for maintenance, involving pipe lagging, flues and boiler cupboard panels.

Village properties around Shreding Green often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Shreding Green questions

Do older homes in Shreding Green have asbestos?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Can you survey a school or hall near Shreding Green?

Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.

What paperwork will I get?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

Will I get the price in writing?

Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included.

Common reasons for surveys in Shreding Green

Duty holders for non-domestic premises must find out whether asbestos is present and assess its risk. Most duty holders commission a survey to meet that duty.

Asbestos can be in plenty of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:

Rented homes between tenancies
Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
Buying a property built before 2000

What’s included, and what is not

The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time

Service details

What happens next

Any areas not accessed are listed, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.

A few practical points:

Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Book the survey before you book builders
Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe

Don’ts

If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.

Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.

What it might be made of

Pipe lagging

Lagging on older pipes and boilers can contain asbestos and releases fibres easily. Work on it is licensed.

Insulating board

Asbestos insulating board was used for panels, partitions, soffits, ceiling tiles and around heaters. Most work on insulating board is licensed, so identifying it matters.

Options to consider in Shreding Green

A survey or a sample test? A test answers the question for one or two specific materials; a survey looks at the whole building or work area and finds materials you might not have noticed. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
