Asbestos survey near Spring Park
An asbestos survey finds out whether a building contains asbestos, where it is, how much there is and what condition it’s in. In Spring Park, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, with samples analysed by an accredited laboratory. Whether it’s planned refurbishment work and pre-work surveys for trades, we cover pipe lagging, textured ceilings and boiler cupboard panels and more.
In a London neighbourhood like Spring Park, surveys are often for flats, converted houses and mixed-use buildings, where the shared parts fall under the duty to manage and each flat is the owner’s responsibility. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

DIY and asbestos
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Afterwards
If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.
A few practical points:
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
Things not to do
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone, and keep trades away from them.
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
FAQs for Spring Park
Can you work in Spring Park with London’s parking rules?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan.
Do you work near West Wickham station?
Yes, we cover Spring Park and the area towards West Wickham station, about 0.8 miles north-east.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Is a survey needed before building work in Spring Park?
For the parts of the building being worked on, yes: HSG264 says refurbishment and demolition work should be preceded by a refurbishment and demolition survey.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Spring Park?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Send us the details of the building.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Options to consider in Spring Park
A homebuyer report isn’t an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it doesn’t generally take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

What we do and do not cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Responsibilities for owners
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Spring Park, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Materials we deal with
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. It’s licensed work.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. The fibres are bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.
