Where asbestos turns up

Asbestos materials often look exactly like ones without asbestos. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the only reliable way to know.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
Demolition projects
Buying a property built before 2000

Public buildings around Slade Green, such as leisure centres and halls, are non-domestic premises, where the duty to manage asbestos applies.

Asbestos survey in Slade Green

We survey houses, flats, commercial buildings and outbuildings across Slade Green. Whatever the building, the report sets out what was found, where, the laboratory results and what we recommend. People often contact us about demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises, including floor tiles, water tanks and garage roofs.

For London properties like those in Slade Green, the scope matters most: the whole block, a single flat or only the work areas. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

What affects the price in Slade Green

What drives the price:

How much there is
The size and age of the building
How many outbuildings are included
Material and condition

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Sending photos

When you send photos, these help most:

Damaged areas
An idea of size
Street parking nearby
The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch

If you have a survey or test result, include it when you send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

Good to know

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Common materials

Artex and textured coatings
Boiler cupboards and panels
Pipe lagging
Roofing felt and bitumen
Garage and shed roofs
Ceiling tiles
Water tanks and flues
Cement sheets and cladding
Soffits and porch canopies
Floor tiles and adhesive

Doing it yourself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles and adhesive

Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, as results can differ.

Insulating board

Insulating board turns up in panels, ceilings, soffits and boiler cupboards. Most work on it is licensed, so identifying it matters.

The process

For a management survey, we look into cupboards, voids and lofts that are reasonably accessible and take small samples. We seal up each sample point. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so please keep children and pets away.

Do you need an asbestos survey before renovation?

What happens next

If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report says what should be checked, and how often it might need looking at again.

A few practical points:

Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Survey first, then book the trades
Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches

Don’ts

Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.

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

FAQs for Slade Green

Can you work in Slade Green with London’s parking rules?

We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do you survey schools and community buildings around Slade Green?

Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.

Can you help with a flat?

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

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep everyone away and don’t clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.

What if my house is newer?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.

Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?

That depends on what you’re planning: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Describe the work and we will recommend one.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.

Weighing up your options

A homebuyer report isn’t an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not usually take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. Every quote says whether VAT is included.
