About our asbestos survey in Spurlands End

A survey can cover a whole building or only the rooms being refurbished, whichever fits your plans in Spurlands End. The scope is agreed in writing first, so there are no surprises. Common materials are floor tiles, pipe lagging and water tanks, and people typically contact us about pre-work surveys for trades and public and community buildings.

Village properties around Spurlands End often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Materials we deal with

Asbestos cement

Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.

Floor tiles and adhesive

Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often hidden under newer flooring.

Spurlands End: your questions answered

Do you cover small places like Spurlands End?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do older homes in Spurlands End have asbestos?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Spurlands End may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.

Do you survey commercial buildings in Spurlands End?

Yes, we do: commercial, industrial and community buildings. Send us the size, use and age of the building.

Which asbestos survey do I need in Spurlands End?

A management survey for a building in normal use; a refurbishment and demolition survey before building work. Tell us your plans and we’ll advise.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

Options to consider in Spurlands End

Some people skip the survey and hope for the best. If asbestos is then found mid-job, work stops, costs rise and people may have been exposed, which is why surveying first tends to save money. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.

  • Every main survey type
  • Reports and results you can share

After we have finished in Spurlands End

Material in good condition often does not need removing. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.

Some practical advice:

  • Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
  • Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
  • Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
  • Describe the work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas

Things not to do

Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.

Please don’t break off pieces for us to look at: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.

Responsibilities for owners

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.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Where asbestos turns up

Duty holders for non-domestic premises must find out whether asbestos is present and assess its risk. A survey is the usual way to do that.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:

  • Common parts of flats and HMOs
  • Rented homes between tenancies
  • Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
  • Purchases of older homes and buildings

If you have an older property in Spurlands End, near Church of the Good Shepherd or anywhere else, survey the areas you’re working on before work starts.

Before booking anyone

  • If the price includes VAT
  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • Survey methods in line with HSG264

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Limits to be aware of

We are upfront about what’s included:

  • A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
  • The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
  • Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.

What we deal with

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