Asbestos survey for Sutton Scotney properties
An asbestos survey tells you what asbestos is in a building, where it is and what state it’s in. In Sutton Scotney, we carry out management surveys, refurbishment and demolition surveys and pre-purchase surveys, and samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis. Common materials are pipe lagging, floor tiles and textured ceilings, and people typically contact us about refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms and pre-work surveys for trades.
Village houses like those in Sutton Scotney have often been extended and altered over time, so we survey each part the work will disturb. We only recommend work that is needed.

Where asbestos turns up
Duty holders for non-domestic premises must find out whether asbestos is present and assess its risk. Most duty holders commission a survey to meet that duty.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Community buildings and halls
- Rented homes between tenancies
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
Altering an older house in Sutton Scotney, wherever it is? The rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.

A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles and adhesive
Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.
Textured coatings
Older textured ceilings can contain asbestos. They’re low risk left alone, but shouldn’t be sanded or scraped dry.
Good to know
Before booking, note that:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
Common materials
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Pipe lagging
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Water tanks and flues
- Ceiling tiles
- Roofing felt and bitumen
Sutton Scotney questions
Do older homes in Sutton Scotney have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Sutton Scotney may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover small places like Sutton Scotney?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It must go to a permitted site.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
What does the survey report include?
Every suspect material in the agreed scope: location, laboratory result, condition, photographs and our recommendation, plus any areas we couldn’t reach.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Will the survey damage the property?
Sampling leaves small, sealed sample points. A refurbishment survey opens up the areas being worked on, which is why they need to be empty.
After the job
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Avoid these
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so there’s time to deal with anything it finds.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
