Asbestos survey in Stonecrouch
Any building in Stonecrouch built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. A survey is the way to find out: we inspect, sample suspect materials and write up what we find. Typical jobs include public and community buildings and demolition and strip-out, involving water tanks, garage roofs and pipe lagging.
Village surveys around Stonecrouch can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Stonecrouch: your questions answered
Do you cover small places like Stonecrouch?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Could my house in Stonecrouch contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Stonecrouch can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Who needs a management survey?
Duty holders for workplaces and common parts normally need one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.
Do you work in Stonecrouch?
Yes, we do: our area includes Stonecrouch and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Duty holders and landlords in Stonecrouch
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
What we deal with in Stonecrouch
Asbestos materials often look exactly like ones without asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample gives a reliable answer.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Schools, halls and community buildings
- Rented homes due for maintenance
If you let flats or houses near Etchingham station, share asbestos information with trades before work.
What to look for in a quote
- How many samples are included
- Suitable insurance for the work
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
Your options compared
Do you need a full survey, or just a test? A test answers the question for one or two specific materials; a survey looks at the whole building or work area and finds materials you might not have noticed. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.

What happens next
If it finds asbestos that work would disturb, the report explains what needs removing before work starts, and whether that work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed.
To avoid problems in future:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
Avoid these
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
Book the survey before the builders, so there’s time to deal with anything it finds.
Materials we deal with
Roofing felt and bitumen
Roof felts are checked where they fall within the survey.
Textured coatings
We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, before plasterers or electricians start.

What else we do in Stonecrouch
Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
