Asbestos survey in Whiteley Village
If a building in Whiteley Village dates from before 2000, or was refurbished before then, it may contain asbestos. The way to know for sure is a survey: we inspect, sample suspect materials and write up what we find. We often deal with water tanks, floor tiles and garage roofs, and people usually contact us about community buildings and halls and planned refurbishment work.
Village houses like those in Whiteley Village have often been extended and altered over time, so we survey each part the work will disturb. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Responsibilities for owners
If you manage or own a block in Whiteley Village, 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 anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
The scope of an asbestos survey
The usual limits are:
- A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it
- Areas we cannot safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- A management survey doesn’t open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work

What we deal with in Whiteley Village
Asbestos-containing materials were made for decades in many forms, so they can turn up almost anywhere in an older building, which is why surveys are systematic.
People generally contact us about one of these:
- Checks on rental property
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
- Workplaces built before 2000
Non-domestic buildings, Notre Dame Senior School among them, come under the duty to manage asbestos; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.
Questions to ask before booking
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- Whether VAT is included
- Which areas are covered, and which are not
- Whether extra samples cost more

A management survey or a refurbishment and demolition survey? A management survey suits a building in use; a refurbishment and demolition survey looks behind and under surfaces before building work.

Whiteley Village questions
Is asbestos common in Whiteley Village homes?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Whiteley Village?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
What does licensed work mean?
It covers the higher-risk materials: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do you cover Whiteley Village?
Yes. We cover Whiteley Village and the surrounding area as part of Surrey. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
What it costs
We base our quote on:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- What the material is and its state
- How many different materials need sampling
- Which survey type fits your plans
The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Photos that help
For a quick quote, include:
- Cracks or breaks
- A rough size or measurement
- The access route
- Street parking nearby
Each job is priced individually. To start, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
What happens next
Duty holders use the survey to build an asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Share any previous surveys or drawings
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
Things not to do
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Tell the surveyor everything you’re planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.
