Asbestos survey for Tuesley
Typical surveys in Tuesley
Asbestos was used in British buildings for much of the 20th century, until it was fully banned in 1999. That is why so many buildings in Surrey can contain it, from garage roofs and soffits to textured ceilings and floor tiles.
These are some of the things we deal with in Tuesley:
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Purchases of older homes and buildings
- Demolition projects
- Workplaces built before 2000
If you have an older property in Tuesley, near St John the Evangelist's Church or anywhere else, survey the areas you are working on before work starts.

Asbestos survey for Tuesley properties
Planning building work in Tuesley? Before refurbishment or demolition, HSE’s guidance is that the areas affected need a refurbishment and demolition survey, so any asbestos can be dealt with before the builders arrive. From pre-work surveys for trades and purchases of older homes and buildings, we cover flues, boiler cupboard panels and water tanks.
In a village like Tuesley, surveys often include barns, stables, garages and outbuildings as well as the house, as cement sheet roofs and cladding were widely used on farm and garden buildings. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Surveying buildings in Tuesley
Tuesley is about 6 miles south of Guildford, in Surrey. Tuesley is within our Surrey area, whatever the size of the job. Tuesley is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey where we work. Our area stretches from Tuesley to Guildford (about 6 miles away).
For rented homes close to Milford (Surrey) station, share asbestos information with trades before work. For a school like Godalming College, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register, and a management survey is generally where that starts. Tuesley is within about 6 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, and rural properties there often have outbuildings worth including in a survey.
Anywhere in GU7, an asbestos survey is available, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean a property on Tuesley Lane, Sycamore Avenue and Chervil Close. For properties just outside Tuesley, we cover Enton Green (1 mile south), Ockford Ridge (1 mile south-west), Hydestile (1 mile south-east), Milford (1 mile west) and Aaron's Hill (1 mile north). Further out, we also cover Guildford (6 miles north), Woking (11 miles north), Camberley (12 miles north), Farnham (8 miles west), Dorking (14 miles east) and Frimley (11 miles north-west).

Materials we deal with
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and must be left alone in the meantime.
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement was used for garage and shed roofs, gutters, downpipes, flues, soffits and water tanks. The fibres are bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
Responsibilities for owners
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
If your business premises in Tuesley were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

How we price an asbestos survey
Quotes vary because of:
- How many outbuildings are included
- The size and age of the building
- The type of material and its condition
- The quantity or area
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
What to photograph
Photo tips:
- Damaged areas
- The access route
- The parking area
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
To get a quote, call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Include the postcode, the material and some photos.
What we do and don’t cover
So you know what to expect:
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it won’t do before building work
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Artex and textured coatings

Tuesley questions
Is asbestos common in Tuesley homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Tuesley from London?
Tuesley is about 32 miles from central London, well within our area.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Tuesley?
It depends on your plans: normal use and management calls for a management survey, while refurbishment or demolition needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected. Describe the work and we will recommend one.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Do I need a test or a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats typically do. Private landlords and homeowners often commission one too.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Weighing up your options
Management or refurbishment and demolition? The first is for a building in normal use and involves minor intrusion; the second is fully intrusive and needed before work. See our guide to which survey you need. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.
Why people choose us

After the job
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Once we are done:
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
- Describe the work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
What to avoid
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone, and keep trades away from them.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
