About our asbestos survey in Up Nately
The point of a survey is more than a list. It records the condition of each material, so you know what can be left and managed and what needs dealing with. Whether it’s demolition of garages, extensions and buildings and the communal parts of blocks of flats, we deal with floor tiles, boiler cupboard panels and soffits.
Village surveys around Up Nately can include extensions, stores and stables as well as the house, each scoped separately if needed. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

For businesses and landlords in Up Nately
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.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Materials, one by one
Asbestos cement
Asbestos cement turns up on roofs, flues and outbuildings. Its condition matters as much as its presence.
Floor tiles and adhesive
We can sample tiles and adhesive separately, as results can differ.

The scope of an asbestos survey
So you know what to expect:
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it won’t do before building work
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
Materials we see
- Artex and textured coatings
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Garage and shed roofs
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Ceiling tiles
- Water tanks and flues
- Pipe lagging
After we’ve finished in Up Nately
Material in good condition often doesn’t need removing. The report tells you what to keep an eye on.
Going forward:
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the scope matches
Don’ts
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials, and keep trades away from them.
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.
The process
We photograph and assess the condition of everything we find, for the report. It helps if we can park nearby, 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
- We send the report with results and recommendations
How to prepare
- Let us know where we can park
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them
- Keep children and pets away on the day

Up Nately: your questions answered

Do you work near Hook station?

Could my home contain asbestos?
You cannot tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs aren’t affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Where asbestos turns up
Many buildings have been extended, refitted and repaired over the years, so asbestos can turn up in later additions as well as original features, so a survey checks the whole scope, not just obvious spots.
Typical jobs in Up Nately include:
- Pre-purchase checks on older properties
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Demolition projects
- Pre-work surveys for trades
Schools such as Robert May's School are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos and keep a register; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.
What to look for in a quote
- Which areas are covered, and which are not
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- How many samples are included
- Survey methods in line with HSG264
Prices and what affects them
What changes the cost:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- How many samples are needed
- Material and condition
- How many different materials need sampling
Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Doing it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
