Asbestos survey in Tylers Green

About to refurbish in Tylers Green? Before refurbishment or demolition, HSE’s guidance is that the areas affected need a refurbishment and demolition survey, so nothing hidden is disturbed once work begins. People often contact us about pre-purchase checks on older properties and workplaces built before 2000, including flues, textured ceilings and water tanks.

Homes in towns and villages like Tylers Green range from older cottages to post-war and later houses, and anything altered before 2000 may contain asbestos. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Tylers Green questions

Is asbestos common in Tylers Green homes?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Tylers Green can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you survey schools and community buildings around Tylers Green?

Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.

Is a survey needed before building work in Tylers Green?

For the parts of the building being worked on, yes: HSE’s guidance (HSG264) is that refurbishment and demolition work needs a refurbishment and demolition survey first.

Do landlords need an asbestos survey?

Anyone with a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic premises or the common parts of domestic buildings typically starts with one. Many landlords of private homes find one useful before maintenance.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

Do you work on commercial premises?

We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Choosing the right option

A low price can mean a narrow scope. Compare the areas covered, the sampling and the report, not just the price, before deciding. Every quote says whether VAT is included.

The scope of an asbestos survey

Worth knowing before you book:

  • A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
  • Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

More about this service

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

If your business premises in Tylers Green were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Surveying buildings in Tylers Green

Tylers Green is about 2 miles north-east of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. Tylers Green has a mix of older and newer buildings, and anything from before 2000 may contain asbestos. Tylers Green is one of 263 towns and villages in Buckinghamshire we cover. We work right across the region, from Tylers Green to Reading (about 18 miles away).

What it might be made of

Asbestos cement

Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.

Floor tiles and adhesive

Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often hidden under newer flooring.

Common reasons for surveys in Tylers Green

It isn’t only big projects that disturb asbestos: drilling for cables, lights or pipes can release fibres, so knowing where it is matters.

These are some of the things we deal with in Tylers Green:

  • Community buildings and halls
  • Rented homes between tenancies
  • Purchases of older homes and buildings
  • Planned refurbishment work

For rented homes close to High Wycombe station, it helps to know what’s in the building before repairs.

Before you book anyone

  • Suitable insurance for the work
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • Which areas and materials are covered
  • The survey type, as defined in HSG264

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Afterwards

If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.

A few practical points:

  • Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
  • Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
  • Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
  • For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts

Avoid these

If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
