Asbestos survey for Street End properties
For landlords and managing agents in Street End, a survey gives contractors the information they need before they start, and keeps the asbestos register accurate. From workplaces built before 2000 and demolition and strip-out, we cover garage roofs, boiler cupboard panels and flues.
Around a village like Street End, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

How we price an asbestos survey
The cost depends on:
- The type of survey you need
- How much sampling is needed
- The type of material and its condition
- Access to the area
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Photos that help
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- A rough size or measurement
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Labels, if any
Not sure what you need? Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749 and describe the problem, and we will recommend the right option.
DIY and asbestos
A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

If you have an older property in Street End, near St Mary Our Lady Sidlesham or anywhere else, the rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive. If you’re a landlord near Chichester station, it helps to know what’s in the building before repairs.

The scope of an asbestos survey
Before booking, note that:
- Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- 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 before you book.

Common questions in Street End
Do you work near Chichester station?
Yes. Chichester station is about 3.2 miles north of Street End, and we cover both.
Do you cover Street End from London?
We cover Street End, about 58 miles from central London.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
What if my house is newer?
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.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do you cover Street End?
Yes, Street End is in our area. Tell us the postcode and what you need.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
No, they’re different: a homebuyer report can flag suspected asbestos without testing it. For an answer, you need a pre-purchase asbestos survey.
How it works
In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so please keep children and pets away.
- Start by telling us about the property and your plans
- We agree the type of survey and the areas it covers, and send a quote
- We inspect the areas in scope and sample suspect materials
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Getting ready
- Dig out previous surveys
- Clear the way to the work area
- Don’t disturb the material before we get there

Helpful guides
Materials we deal with
Floor tiles and adhesive
Tiles and adhesive can be sampled separately, because one may contain asbestos when the other does not.
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.
Responsibilities for owners
If your business premises in Street End were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Afterwards
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so they know what to avoid or plan around.
Going forward:
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Survey first, then book the trades
Don’ts
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
