Why people call us in Upper Froyle
Until the 1999 ban, asbestos went into hundreds of building products. That is why so many buildings in Hampshire can contain it, from garage roofs and soffits to textured ceilings and floor tiles.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Workplaces built before 2000
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Common parts of flats and HMOs
- Checks on rental property
Schools such as Eggar's School are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos and keep a register.
Before booking anyone
- The survey type, as defined in HSG264
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
- Whether VAT is included
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
Questions from Upper Froyle
Do you cover Upper Froyle and the area around Bentley (Hampshire) station?
Yes, we cover Upper Froyle and the area towards Bentley (Hampshire) station, about 2.3 miles east.
Do older homes in Upper Froyle have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Upper Froyle may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Which asbestos survey do I need in Upper Froyle?
It depends on your plans: managing a building in use means a management survey; building work means a refurbishment and demolition survey. Tell us more and we’ll advise.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
How can I get a price?
Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Does a survey leave holes?
Very little, in a management survey: sample points are small and sealed. A refurbishment and demolition survey opens up the areas being worked on, by design.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

How we price an asbestos survey
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- The survey scope
- The size of the job
- The number of materials to sample
How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
Sending photos
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A photo of the whole area
- A close-up from a safe distance
- An idea of size
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
What happens next
If it finds asbestos that work would disturb, the report explains what needs removing before work starts, and whether that work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Ensure you can pass the report to your builder
- For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
Things not to do
Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.
DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Duty holders and landlords in Upper Froyle
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
Options to consider in Upper Froyle

The scope of an asbestos survey
It’s worth knowing what an asbestos survey does and does not cover:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
