Asbestos survey in Wimbledon Park
How asbestos survey works in Wimbledon Park
We survey the whole building or just the areas you’re working on, whichever fits your plans in Wimbledon Park. The scope is agreed in writing first, so there are no surprises. Whether it’s contractors’ requests for an asbestos report and workplaces built before 2000, we deal with garage roofs, soffits and pipe lagging and more.
For London properties like those in Wimbledon Park, the scope matters most: the whole block, a single flat or only the work areas. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Wimbledon Park: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Wimbledon Park homes?
If your home in Wimbledon Park was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work in Wimbledon Park despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
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.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Do you work in Wimbledon Park?
Yes, we do: our area includes Wimbledon Park and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we’ll quote.
Limits to be aware of
Some limits to bear in mind:
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so plan it around the building’s use
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it won’t do before building work
- 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’ll advise.
What we deal with
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Artex and textured coatings
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Ceiling tiles
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Water tanks and flues
- Pipe lagging
- Garage and shed roofs
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Cement sheets and cladding
How we work
The surveyor photographs and records each material’s condition, which goes into the report. We begin by confirming exactly what we’re doing, so there is no confusion.
- Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
- You get a written quote for the agreed scope
- The surveyor inspects and takes samples
- An accredited laboratory analyses the samples
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that is not clear
Getting ready
- Tell us about parking and access
- Do not disturb the material before we get there
- Dig out previous surveys

What it costs
We base our quote on:
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- Travel and parking
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Which survey type fits your plans
Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.
Photos that help
The most useful photos are:
- A close-up from a safe distance
- Where we could park
- A rough size or measurement
- Visible markings

What we deal with in Wimbledon Park
You cannot tell whether a material contains asbestos by looking at it. Only laboratory analysis of a sample gives a reliable answer.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Contractors’ requests for an asbestos report
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
- Demolition of garages, extensions and buildings
- Shops, offices and industrial units
For rented homes close to Earlsfield station, it helps to know what’s in the building before repairs.
What your quote should include
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- If the price includes VAT
- Areas included and excluded
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
Which option is right?
The cheapest survey is not always the best value. Check how many samples are included, which areas are covered and what the report contains, before deciding. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

Should you do it yourself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
After the job
If the survey finds asbestos in good condition, it can often be left and managed. The report says what should be checked, and how often it might need looking at again.
A few practical points:
- Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed
- Tell us about any areas that are locked or unsafe
- Tell us exactly what work you are planning, so the survey covers the right areas
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
Don’ts
Please do not break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: sampling is part of the survey, done with controls to keep dust down.
