Stoke Goldington questions

Do you cover Stoke Goldington from London?

Stoke Goldington is about 53 miles from central London, well within our area.

Is asbestos common in Stoke Goldington homes?

If your home in Stoke Goldington was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

Will the survey damage the property?

Only minimally for a management survey: small samples are taken and the points sealed. A refurbishment and demolition survey opens up the areas being worked on, by design.

Does weather affect the work?

That depends: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.

When can you start?

We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.

Asbestos survey in Stoke Goldington

For landlords and managing agents in Stoke Goldington, a survey gives contractors the information they need before they start. We often deal with garage roofs, textured ceilings and boiler cupboard panels, and people typically contact us about pre-work surveys for trades and kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects.

Village properties around Stoke Goldington often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

What affects the price in Stoke Goldington

Quotes vary because of:

Parking and access charges
Which survey type fits your plans
How many different materials need sampling
How many outbuildings are included

Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

What to photograph

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:

How we’d reach it
Visible markings
A clear close-up
Cracks or breaks

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Should you do it yourself?

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.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Materials, one by one

Textured coatings

Textured ceilings are sampled where they’re in scope, before plasterers or electricians start.

Roofing felt and bitumen

Some older roofing felts, bitumen products and mastics contain asbestos, normally bound in the bitumen.

Typical surveys in Stoke Goldington

Asbestos materials often look exactly like ones without asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample gives a reliable answer.

Typical jobs in Stoke Goldington include:

Checks on rental property
Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
Schools, halls and community buildings
Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises

For a school like Stoke Goldington Church of England School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register.

How to choose an asbestos contractor

How we work

Our surveyor inspects each area in scope and samples suspect materials, wetting and sealing each sample point to keep dust down. We begin by confirming exactly what we are doing, so there is no confusion.

We recommend the right type of survey
On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear

Getting ready

Tell us what you need

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

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

What we do and do not cover

Some limits to bear in mind:

The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use

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

Common materials

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

Service details

Looking after things afterwards

Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and what kind of work that is.

Going forward:

Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
Keep pets and children out of the way on the day

What to avoid

Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.

Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
