Asbestos survey near Wendover Dean
Where asbestos turns up
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.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- The communal parts of blocks of flats
- Community buildings and halls
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
For a school like John Colet School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register, and a management survey is usually where that starts.

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

A closer look at the materials
Floor tiles and adhesive
Vinyl and thermoplastic floor tiles and black bitumen adhesive can contain asbestos. They’re often found under carpet or laminate.
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.
What’s included, and what is not
The usual limits are:
- A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it is not enough before refurbishment
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and should be presumed to contain asbestos
- The report describes the building when surveyed; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Ceiling tiles
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Artex and textured coatings
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Water tanks and flues
- Pipe lagging
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Garage and shed roofs
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Cement sheets and cladding

Common questions in Wendover Dean
Can you survey a school or hall near Wendover Dean?
Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Do older homes in Wendover Dean have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Wendover Dean may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
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.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
