Asbestos survey in Tiptoe
About our asbestos survey in Tiptoe
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, garage roofs and boiler cupboard panels, and typical jobs are pre-work surveys for trades and managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises.
Around a village like Tiptoe, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

Can I do it myself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
What else we do in Tiptoe
After we’ve finished in Tiptoe
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which should be kept up to date.
Going forward:
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
Things not to do
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Your questions about an asbestos survey in Tiptoe
Do you cover small places like Tiptoe?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can you survey a school or hall near Tiptoe?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Do you survey commercial buildings in Tiptoe?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Choosing the right option

The scope of an asbestos survey
Some limits to bear in mind:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it won’t do before building work
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Pipe lagging
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Water tanks and flues
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Ceiling tiles
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs
- Floor tiles and adhesive
Materials we deal with
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, which is why sampling matters.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings such as Artex were used on ceilings and walls, and older ones can contain a small amount of asbestos. They’re low risk left alone, but shouldn’t be sanded or scraped dry.
How it works
Each sample is sealed, labelled and recorded with its location, before going to an accredited laboratory. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions.
- Start by telling us about the property and your plans
- We agree the type of survey and the areas it covers, and send a quote
- We inspect the areas in scope and sample suspect materials
- Samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis
- You receive a written report with locations, results, condition and recommendations
Getting ready
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Ensure we can get to the area

Why people call us in Tiptoe

- The communal parts of blocks of flats
- Rented homes due for maintenance
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Pre-work surveys for trades
A school such as Tiptoe Primary School counts as non-domestic premises, where the law requires asbestos to be managed; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.
