Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
The scope of an asbestos survey
What’s in and what’s out:
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Water tanks and flues
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Pipe lagging
- Ceiling tiles
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Garage and shed roofs
- Artex and textured coatings
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Roofing felt and bitumen

Tadmarton questions
Do you work near Banbury station?
Yes. Banbury station is about 4.5 miles east of Tadmarton, and we cover both.
How far is Tadmarton from London?
Tadmarton is about 68 miles from central London, well within our area.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.
Do you cover Tadmarton?
Yes, we do: our area includes Tadmarton and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Will the survey damage the property?
Very little, in 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.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
Yes, commercial and community buildings as well as homes. Send us the details of the building.
Choosing the right option
Some people skip the survey and hope for the best. Finding asbestos halfway through a job means stopping work, extra cost and possible exposure, which is why surveying first tends to save money. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
What you get
- Reports that say what wasn’t accessed
- Quotes that spell out the scope
- Each material’s condition recorded
- Clear advice on your options

What happens next
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
Some practical advice:
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
Don’ts
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.
Until the survey is done, don’t drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
Materials we deal with
Textured coatings
Textured ceilings are sampled where they’re in scope, so you know before plastering or rewiring.
Pipe lagging
Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. Work on it is licensed.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
