After the job

Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and what kind of work that is.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
  • Survey first, then book the trades
  • Have any old surveys or plans ready
  • Describe the work you’re planning, so the scope matches

Things not to do

Plan the survey early, before you book builders, so the results can shape your plans and your budget.

Asbestos survey for Wildmoor properties

If a building in Wildmoor dates from before 2000, or was refurbished before then, it may contain asbestos. A survey is the way to find out: a surveyor inspects the building, takes small samples of suspect materials and records the results in a report. Whether it’s schools, halls and community buildings and rented homes between tenancies, we cover water tanks, floor tiles and boiler cupboard panels and more.

Rural homes near Wildmoor have often been extended over generations, so we survey each part the work will disturb. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

How we price an asbestos survey

These are the main things that affect the price of an asbestos survey:

  • The number of materials to sample
  • The type of survey you need
  • Parking and access charges
  • The size and age of the building

Dealing with asbestos before building work is typically cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Helping us quote

Before you send photos, a few tips:

  • Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
  • A close-up from a safe distance
  • Cracks or breaks
  • An overall view

Include any existing survey or test when you call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form; it helps us quote accurately.

  2. We recommend the right type of survey
  3. We carry out the survey on site
  4. The lab analyses the samples
  5. You receive a clear written report with recommendations

Helpful guides

Where asbestos turns up

You cannot tell whether a material contains asbestos by looking at it. Only laboratory analysis of a sample gives a reliable answer.

Typical jobs in Wildmoor include:

  • Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
  • Buying a property built before 2000
  • Common parts of flats and HMOs
  • Shops, offices and industrial units

Schools such as The Loddon School are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos and keep a register.

What to look for in a quote

  • That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
  • Which areas are covered, and which aren’t
  • What the report or result will contain

What to check before booking

Good to know

So you know what to expect:

  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
  • 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, though we can quote for that too

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise.

Materials we see

  • Cement sheets and cladding
  • Artex and textured coatings
  • Pipe lagging
  • Soffits and porch canopies
  • Garage and shed roofs
  • Water tanks and flues
  • Ceiling tiles
  • Floor tiles and adhesive
  • Boiler cupboards and panels
  • Roofing felt and bitumen

Duty holders and landlords in Wildmoor

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Should you do it yourself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

Which option is right?

An old survey may not be enough. If it was a management survey, it won’t have looked inside the fabric of the building where you’re about to work, so refurbishment needs a fresh, intrusive survey of the work areas. The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

What you get

  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone
  • Every main survey type
  • Recommendations in plain English
  • Condition assessed for every material

FAQs for Wildmoor

Do you survey schools and community buildings around Wildmoor?

Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.

How far is Wildmoor from London?

Wildmoor is about 42 miles from central London, well within our area.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

What paperwork will I get?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

How dangerous is asbestos?

Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.

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.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you’re around to answer questions.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
