About our asbestos survey in Welborne
If a building in Welborne dates from before 2000, or was refurbished before then, it may contain asbestos. A survey is the way to find out: we inspect, sample suspect materials and write up what we find. Typical jobs include demolition and strip-out and workplaces built before 2000, involving water tanks, flues and soffits.
Rural homes near Welborne have often been extended over generations, so we survey each part the work will disturb. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

FAQs for Welborne
Do you cover Welborne and the area around Fareham station?
Yes. Fareham station is about 1.9 miles south of Welborne, and we cover both.
Do you cover Welborne from London?
We cover Welborne, about 64 miles from central London.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.

What else we do in Welborne
Should you do it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
What happens next
Any areas not accessed are listed, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.
Once we’re done:
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- Book the survey before booking builders
- 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
What to avoid
Plan the survey early, before booking builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.
What we do and don’t cover
Worth knowing before booking:
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

How we work
A refurbishment and demolition survey is fully intrusive: we check behind, under and inside the parts 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 and the reason for the survey
- You get a written quote for the agreed scope
- On the agreed day, the surveyor inspects, photographs and samples
- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
How to prepare
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage
- Let us know where we can park

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.

Materials, one by one
Insulating board
It’s easy to mistake insulating board for other boards, which is why sampling matters.
Pipe lagging
Lagging found in a survey is flagged clearly, and must be left alone in the meantime.
What it costs
These are the main things that affect the price of an asbestos survey:
- Lofts, voids and outbuildings to include
- How many samples are needed
- The survey type
- How many different materials need sampling
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
What to photograph
For a quick quote, include:
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- The parking area
- Damaged areas
- A wide shot showing where the material is

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Your options compared
A survey or a sample test? A test answers the question for one or two specific materials; a survey covers everything in scope, including materials nobody had spotted. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
