Options to consider in Warminghurst
An old survey may not be enough. A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so planned refurbishment normally needs a refurbishment and demolition survey of those areas. We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Why people choose us
- Clear next steps
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
- Inaccessible areas listed clearly

Asbestos survey for Warminghurst properties
A survey is not just a list of what’s there. 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 common parts of flats and HMOs, we deal with garage roofs, pipe lagging and water tanks.
Rural homes near Warminghurst have often been extended over generations, so we survey each part the work will disturb. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

Questions from Warminghurst
Do you cover Warminghurst from London?
Warminghurst is about 41 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Warminghurst?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.
Will the survey damage the property?
A management survey takes small samples, which are sealed afterwards. A refurbishment and demolition survey is intrusive by design, because it has to look inside the fabric of the building.

Why people call us in Warminghurst
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.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Checks on rental property
- Community buildings and halls
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Kitchen, bathroom and rewiring projects
Schools such as Ashington CofE Primary 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.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether extra samples cost more
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
- That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
- The scope, in writing

After we’ve finished in Warminghurst
The survey ends with a written report: locations, results, condition and recommendations for every material in scope.
After we’ve finished:
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
Things not to do
Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Until the survey is done, do not drill, sand, cut or break suspect materials.
What it might be made of
Textured coatings
Textured ceilings are sampled where they’re in scope, before plasterers or electricians start.
Asbestos cement
Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. Its condition matters as much as its presence.
The process
In a refurbishment and demolition survey, we open up the fabric of the building: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- On the day we inspect, sample and photograph
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear
Before we arrive
- Do not disturb the material before we get there
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Let us know where we can park

Limits to be aware of
Here’s what an asbestos survey covers, and what it does not:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Ceiling tiles
- Artex and textured coatings
- Garage and shed roofs
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Water tanks and flues
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Pipe lagging
- Cement sheets and cladding
Can I do it myself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
