How asbestos survey works in Temple Valley

A survey is not just a list of what’s there. It records the condition of each material, so you know what can be left and managed and what needs dealing with. Typical materials include flues, textured ceilings and water tanks, and typical jobs are kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects and buying a property built before 2000.

In a village like Temple Valley, surveys often include barns, stables, garages and outbuildings as well as the house, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Choosing the right option

Some people skip the survey and hope for the best. If asbestos is then found mid-job, work stops, costs rise and people may have been exposed, which is why surveying first tends to save money. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.

Why choose us

  • The right survey for your plans
  • Clear advice on your options
  • Inaccessible areas listed clearly
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder

FAQs for Temple Valley

Do you come out to small villages like Temple Valley?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

How far is Temple Valley from London?

Temple Valley is about 58 miles from central London, well within our area.

Can asbestos go in my bin?

No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

How do I get a quote?

Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.

Can I do it myself?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Duty holders and landlords in Temple Valley

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

For managing agents and freeholders in Temple Valley, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

The scope of an asbestos survey

Before you book, note that:

  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
  • A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it
  • A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

A closer look at the materials

Asbestos cement

Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. The fibres are bound in cement, and breaking or cutting it releases them.

Floor tiles and adhesive

Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote reflects:

  • The size and age of the building
  • How much there is
  • Material and condition
  • How many samples are needed

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

Helping us quote

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:

  • A rough size or measurement
  • A clear close-up
  • Where we could park
  • A wide shot showing where the material is

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.

Where asbestos turns up

You cannot tell whether a material contains asbestos by looking at it. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the only reliable way to know.

Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:

  • The communal parts of blocks of flats
  • Planned refurbishment work
  • Schools, halls and community buildings
  • Demolition and strip-out

If you’re a landlord near Winchester station, a survey gives contractors the information they need.

What to look for in a quote

  • If the price includes VAT
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
  • Which areas are covered, and which aren’t

How to choose an asbestos contractor

  • 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
