Asbestos survey for Weavers Down properties
An asbestos survey tells you what asbestos is in a building, where it is and what state it’s in.

Whether it’s public and community buildings and workplaces built before 2000, we cover boiler cupboard panels, soffits and water tanks and more.

Choosing the right option
Some people skip the survey and hope for the best. Finding asbestos halfway through a job means stopping work, extra cost and possible exposure, which is why surveying first tends to save money. Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

What it might be made of
Floor tiles and adhesive
We can sample tiles and adhesive separately, as results can differ.
Textured coatings
Textured coatings such as Artex were used on ceilings and walls, and older ones can contain a small amount of asbestos. Left alone they’re low risk; sanding or dry scraping is the problem.
Your questions about an asbestos survey in Weavers Down
Do you cover small places like Weavers Down?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you survey schools and community buildings around Weavers Down?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
Duty holders for workplaces and common parts generally need one. Many landlords of private homes find one useful before maintenance.
Do I need an asbestos survey before renovating?
For the parts of the building being worked on, yes: HSG264 says refurbishment and demolition work should be preceded by a refurbishment and demolition survey.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always.
For businesses and landlords in Weavers Down
If you manage or own a block in Weavers Down, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Where asbestos turns up
You can’t tell whether a material contains asbestos by looking at it. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the only reliable way to know.
These come up again and again:
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
- Demolition projects
- The communal parts of blocks of flats
- Checks on rental property
If you let flats or houses near Liphook station, share asbestos information with trades before work.
