What affects the price in Temple Mills
Every quote reflects:
- The type of survey you need
- The type of material and its condition
- How many samples are needed
- How many different materials need sampling
The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
What to photograph
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Cracks or breaks
- Approximate dimensions
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
After the job
Material in good condition often doesn’t need removing. The report says what should be checked, and how often it might need looking at again.
Some practical advice:
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
What to avoid
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone, and keep trades away from them.
Be clear about the work you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
Options to consider in Temple Mills
The cheapest survey isn’t always the best value. Compare the areas covered, the sampling and the report, not just the price, so you’re comparing like with like. Our quotes are clear about VAT.
What you get
- Across London and the South East
- Work done to the regulations
- Reports that say what wasn’t accessed
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it

Common reasons for surveys in Temple Mills
For workplaces and common parts, the law requires asbestos to be identified and its risk assessed. Most duty holders commission a survey to meet that duty.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Demolition projects
Schools such as Chobham Academy are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos and keep a register.
What your quote should include
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The survey type, as defined in HSG264
- How many samples are included
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
What it might be made of
Roofing felt and bitumen
Roof felts are checked where they fall within the survey.
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, which is why sampling matters.
What’s included, and what isn’t
The usual limits are:
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- The report describes the building when surveyed; condition can change, so recheck it
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before you book.
Materials we see
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Pipe lagging
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Ceiling tiles
- Garage and shed roofs
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Water tanks and flues
- Artex and textured coatings
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
For managing agents and freeholders in Temple Mills, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors.
The process
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so those areas need to be empty. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We recommend a survey type and quote for the agreed scope
- We inspect the areas in scope and sample suspect materials
- Samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis
- We send the report with results and recommendations
Getting ready
- Let us know where we can park
- Mention any damage before we arrive
- Dig out previous surveys

FAQs for Temple Mills

Yes. Stratford International station is close to the centre of Temple Mills, and we cover the whole area.
Do you need to see it before quoting?

Does a survey leave holes?
Very little, in a management survey: small samples are taken and the points sealed. A refurbishment survey is intrusive, which is why the rooms must be empty.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.

Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
