Choosing the right option
A survey or a sample test? Testing tells you about the materials you sample, and nothing else; a survey looks at the whole building or work area and finds materials you might not have noticed. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.

West End Green questions
Do you work near Bramley (Hants) station?

How far is West End Green from London?
We cover West End Green, about 42 miles from central London.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
It’s usually needed by whoever manages a workplace or the shared parts of a block. Homeowners and landlords use them as well.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.

After we’ve finished in West End Green
If there are areas we couldn’t reach, the report lists them clearly, so they’re treated as if they contain asbestos until checked.
Going forward:
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
Don’ts
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.
Where asbestos turns up
The danger generally comes from drilling, cutting or sanding a material nobody knew contained asbestos. Surveying first means nobody disturbs it by accident.
Typical jobs in West End Green include:
- Checks on rental property
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Planned refurbishment work
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
For rented homes close to Bramley (Hants) station, asbestos information should be ready for contractors before maintenance.
Questions to ask before you book
- Survey methods in line with HSG264
- The scope of the job, in writing
- How many samples are included
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in West End Green, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Cement roofs, flues, gutters and tanks are among the most common finds. The fibres are bound in cement, but it releases fibres when broken, cut or abraded.
Floor tiles and adhesive
Older floor tiles and the black glue under them may contain asbestos. They’re often hidden under newer flooring.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
