How we work
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we look behind panels, under floors and above ceilings in the areas being worked on, so the rooms must be cleared. The work area is kept clear while we’re working, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere.
- 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
- Our surveyor carries out the inspection and sampling
- An accredited laboratory analyses each sample
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear
Getting ready
- Dig out previous surveys
- Keep the area clear of children and pets
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material

Asbestos survey in Wecock Farm
For landlords and managing agents in Wecock Farm, a survey gives contractors the information they need before they start. Typical jobs include the communal parts of blocks of flats and pre-work surveys for trades, involving boiler cupboard panels, water tanks and garage roofs.
In a smaller place like Wecock Farm, surveys are often for family homes before renovation, with garages and outbuildings included, because cement sheet roofs are common on older garages. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

Should you do it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
After the job
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:
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us exactly what 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
Avoid these
Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone, and keep trades away from them.
What’s included, and what is not
What’s in and what’s out:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
- A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so plan it around the building’s use
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

What we deal with in Wecock Farm
Builders, electricians and plumbers need to know about asbestos before they work. HSE regularly reminds tradespeople to check before they start, and a survey report is how they find out.
Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
- Shops, offices and industrial units
- Community buildings and halls
For a school like Woodcroft Primary, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register, and a management survey is generally where that starts.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the report or result will contain
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Survey methods in line with HSG264
- Which areas are covered, and which aren’t
Your options compared

Could my house in Wecock Farm contain asbestos?
If your home in Wecock Farm was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
It’s typically needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Is asbestos dangerous?
It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
How quickly can you come out?
