Responsibilities for owners
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

Materials, one by one
Roofing felt and bitumen
Roof felts are checked where they fall within the survey.
Pipe lagging
If a survey finds asbestos lagging, the report will say so and recommend what to do, and must be left alone in the meantime.
The process
On the day, the surveyor walks through the areas in scope, checks every suspect material and takes small samples, wetting and sealing each sample point to keep dust down. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there is no confusion.
- Tell us about the building, its age and what you are planning
- You get a written quote for the agreed scope
- We inspect and sample the areas in scope
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- The report comes to you, and we explain anything that isn’t clear
Preparing for the visit
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Keep children and pets away on the day
- Let us know where we can park

What else we do in Woodgreen
Common reasons for surveys in Woodgreen
The danger generally comes from drilling, cutting or sanding a material nobody knew contained asbestos. A survey removes the guesswork before work starts.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Managing asbestos in workplaces and non-domestic premises
- Buying a property built before 2000
- Surveys requested by builders before work
- Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
Schools such as Breamore Church of England Primary School are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos and keep a register; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.
What your quote should include
- That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
- Which laboratory analyses samples
- Whether VAT is included
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
How we price an asbestos survey
Prices vary with:
- The building’s size and layout
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- How easy it is to reach
- What the material is and its state
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.
Sending photos
Helpful photos:
- Where we could park
- An idea of size
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
- How we’d reach it
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: do not touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
Which option is right?
Management or refurbishment and demolition? A management survey suits a building in use; a refurbishment and demolition survey looks behind and under surfaces before building work. Our guide explains which you need. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
What you get
- The right survey for your plans
- Domestic and commercial work
- Condition assessed for every material
- Records for your files

Woodgreen questions
Do older homes in Woodgreen have asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you survey a school or hall near Woodgreen?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
How do I get a quote?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
Looking after things afterwards
For duty holders, the survey feeds the asbestos register and management plan, which need reviewing regularly.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Make sure we can get into the loft, garage and cupboards
- Have any old surveys or plans ready
- Tell us exactly what work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
Don’ts
If something has been damaged already, close the area off and let us know, rather than cleaning it up.
