Asbestos survey near Wintershill
Any building in Wintershill built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. The way to know for sure is a survey: we inspect, sample suspect materials and write up what we find. Typical jobs include shops, offices and industrial units and planned refurbishment work, involving water tanks, floor tiles and textured ceilings.
Village properties around Wintershill often come with outbuildings, which a survey can include, since cement sheeting was common on outbuildings. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Typical surveys in Wintershill
Duty holders for non-domestic premises must find out whether asbestos is present and assess its risk. A survey is the usual way to do that.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Demolition and strip-out
- Checks on rental property
- Community buildings and halls
- Pre-work surveys for trades
If you manage lettings around Hedge End station, a survey gives contractors the information they need.
What your quote should include
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- What the report or result will contain
- The scope, in writing
- Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Wintershill, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Your questions about an asbestos survey in Wintershill
Do you cover Wintershill and the area around Hedge End station?
Yes. Hedge End station is about 2.8 miles south-west of Wintershill, and we cover both.
Could my house in Wintershill contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How do I get a quote?
Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Can you survey offices and warehouses?
Yes: offices, shops, warehouses, industrial units, schools and halls as well as homes. Tell us the size and use of the building.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
No. It may flag possible asbestos, but it doesn’t generally take samples for analysis. That is what a pre-purchase asbestos survey is for.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Is a survey needed before building work in Wintershill?
For the parts of the building being worked on, yes: HSG264 says refurbishment and demolition work should be preceded by a refurbishment and demolition survey.
Your options compared
A building survey for a purchase is not the same as an asbestos survey. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not generally take samples, so a pre-purchase asbestos survey fills that gap. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
Why people choose us
- Domestic and commercial work
- Every main survey type
- Clear written quotes
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
See our prices page or our cost guide.
Can I do it myself?
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors in the price are:
- How many samples are needed
- The survey type
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Access to the area
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Sending photos
To help us quote quickly, send:
- The access route
- An overall view
- An idea of size
- A close-up from a safe distance
Tell us about the material, its location and your plans. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
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 we’re done:
- Keep pets and children out of the way on the day
- Book the survey before you book builders
- Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
- Ensure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
What to avoid
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us.
Don’t take samples yourself before the survey: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.

Good to know
Before you book, note that:
- The survey tells you what’s there; removal is a separate job, though we can quote for that too
- Inaccessible areas are recorded, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
