How asbestos survey works in Statenborough
Plenty of older buildings, in Statenborough as anywhere, have little or no asbestos, and much of what’s found can stay. A survey tells you which situation you’re in, so you can plan sensibly. Typical materials include garage roofs, boiler cupboard panels and flues, and typical jobs are demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and public and community buildings.
Around a village like Statenborough, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

The process
If we find something that is damaged and could be releasing fibres, we tell you on the day, rather than waiting for the report. We’ll tell you when we’ve finished and what you will receive afterwards.
- Let us know the address and why you need a survey
- We confirm the survey type and which rooms and outbuildings it covers
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You receive the report, with results and what to do next
How to prepare
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
- Mention any parking restrictions
- Make sure we can get to the area

What it costs
Every quote reflects:
- The quantity or area
- How many samples are needed
- What the material is and its state
- The building’s size and layout
There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What to photograph
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- A close-up from a safe distance
- A photo of the whole area
- Approximate dimensions
- Street parking nearby
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
Materials, one by one
Floor tiles and adhesive
Vinyl and thermoplastic floor tiles and black bitumen adhesive can contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and must be left alone in the meantime.
Good to know
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

Questions from Statenborough
Do you cover Statenborough and the area around Sandwich station?
Yes, we cover Statenborough and the area towards Sandwich station, about 1.4 miles north-east.
Can you survey a school or hall near Statenborough?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Statenborough?
Yes, we do: commercial, industrial and community buildings. Send us the size, use and age of the building.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. To do that, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What happens next
If it finds asbestos that work would disturb, the report explains what needs removing before work starts, and what kind of work that is.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
Don’ts
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.
What we deal with in Statenborough
Asbestos went into roofing, boards, coatings, tiles, insulation and more, so there’s no single place to look.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Public and community buildings
- Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
Non-domestic buildings, Sandwich Technology School among them, come under the duty to manage asbestos; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.
Before you book anyone

- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
