Asbestos survey in Upper Enham
Asbestos survey for Upper Enham properties
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building in Upper Enham, or the shared parts of a block of flats, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. The usual first step is a management survey. From the communal parts of blocks of flats and pre-work surveys for trades, we deal with floor tiles, soffits and garage roofs.
Around a village like Upper Enham, a survey may need to cover a farmhouse, its extensions and several outbuildings, each scoped separately if needed. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

A closer look at the materials
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.
Roofing felt and bitumen
Felt on flat roofs and outbuildings is sampled where it’s in scope.
What happens
Our surveyor inspects each area in scope and samples suspect materials, wetting and sealing each sample point to keep dust down. Nobody else needs to be in the work area, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We recommend a survey type and quote for the agreed scope
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- Samples go to an accredited laboratory for analysis
- We send the report with results and recommendations
Preparing for the visit
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them
- Find any old asbestos reports

Good to know
A few things to be aware of:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.

Upper Enham questions
Can you survey a school or hall near Upper Enham?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Do you cover Upper Enham and the area around Andover station?
Yes, we cover Upper Enham and the area towards Andover station, about 2.8 miles south.
Will my homebuyer report check for asbestos?
No. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not generally take samples for analysis. A pre-purchase asbestos survey does.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
Who needs a management survey?
It’s typically needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Homeowners and landlords use them as well, to know what’s there before work.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
After we’ve finished in Upper Enham
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
Going forward:
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
What to avoid
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
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
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
