Asbestos survey for Walton Court
FAQs for Walton Court
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Is asbestos common in Walton Court homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Walton Court can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
What paperwork will I get?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Who needs a management survey?
Duty holders for non-domestic buildings and the common parts of flats typically do. Homeowners and landlords use them as well, to know what’s there before work.
What does the survey report include?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Any areas we couldn’t access are listed.
About our asbestos survey in Walton Court
The type of survey you need in Walton Court depends on what happens next: normal use and maintenance, refurbishment, demolition or a purchase. We’ll recommend the right one. Typical jobs include the communal parts of blocks of flats and rented homes between tenancies, including garage roofs, flues and pipe lagging.
Walton Court has a mix of older and newer homes, and anything altered before 2000 may contain asbestos, so a survey before work is sensible. We start with a clear answer: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

What we do and do not cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
Common materials
- Garage and shed roofs
- Ceiling tiles
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Water tanks and flues
- Artex and textured coatings
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Pipe lagging
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Soffits and porch canopies
After we’ve finished in Walton Court
Share the report with builders and trades before they start, so nobody disturbs asbestos by accident.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Survey first, then book the trades
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
What to avoid
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know.
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.

Weighing up your options
A building survey for a purchase isn’t the same as an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it doesn’t usually take samples, which is where a pre-purchase asbestos survey comes in. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Textured coatings
Older textured ceilings can contain asbestos. Left alone they’re low risk; sanding or dry scraping is the problem.
Pipe lagging
Lagging found in a survey is flagged clearly, and must be left alone in the meantime.
For businesses and landlords in Walton Court
If your business premises in Walton Court were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
