Asbestos survey for Sutton Green properties

In a village like Sutton Green, surveys often include barns, stables, garages and outbuildings as well as the house, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Choosing the right option
Management or refurbishment and demolition? The first is for a building in normal use and involves minor intrusion; the second is fully intrusive and needed before work. See our guide to which survey you need. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
What you get
- Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
- Management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys
- Written quotes that say what’s included
- Condition assessed for every material
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.
What’s included, and what isn’t
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and doesn’t cover:
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
Materials we see
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Garage and shed roofs
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Pipe lagging
- Artex and textured coatings
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Ceiling tiles
- Water tanks and flues
The process
For a management survey, we look into cupboards, voids and lofts that are reasonably accessible and take small samples. We seal up each sample point. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you.
- Describe the property and the reason for the survey
- You get a written quote for the agreed scope
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- The samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You get the report, and we talk you through it
Getting ready
- Clear the way to the work area
- Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
- Mention any damage before we arrive

FAQs for Sutton Green
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Sutton Green?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Do you work near Worplesdon station?
Yes, we cover Sutton Green and the area towards Worplesdon station, about 1.1 miles north-west.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Does a survey leave holes?
Only minimally for a management survey: sample points are small and sealed. A refurbishment survey is intrusive, which is why the rooms must be empty.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
Do I need a management or a refurbishment survey?
It depends on your plans: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Describe the work and we’ll recommend one.
Who needs a management survey?
Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats normally do. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

After we’ve finished in Sutton Green
Keep the report somewhere safe and share it with anyone working on the building, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Book the survey before booking builders
Avoid these
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Prices and what affects them
What changes the cost:
- How easy it is to reach
- The number of materials to sample
- How many samples are needed
- The type of survey you need
There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
What to photograph
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- How we’d reach it
- Where we could park
- Cracks or breaks
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it

Materials, one by one
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, which is why sampling matters.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement turns up on roofs, flues and outbuildings. Its condition matters as much as its presence.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
