Prices and what affects them
The price of an asbestos survey depends mainly on:
- How many outbuildings are included
- How much there is
- How much sampling is needed
- Location, parking and any London charges
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

The scope of an asbestos survey
Worth knowing before you book:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it doesn’t remove it
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked

How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
We do: shops, offices, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls. Send us the size, use and age of the building.
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.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job.

After the job
The survey ends with a written report: what was found, where, the laboratory results, the condition of each material and our recommendations.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Describe the work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Things not to do
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.
What it might be made of
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. It contains a relatively low proportion of fibres bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, so a lab result is essential.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
