Looking after things afterwards
Any areas not accessed are listed, and should be presumed to contain asbestos until they’re checked.
Going forward:
- Describe the work you’re planning, so the scope matches
- Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
- In a block of flats, ask for the register of the shared areas
- Book the survey before you book builders
What to avoid
Please don’t break off pieces for us to look at: we take samples with wetting and sealing to limit any release.
If a material is damaged before the survey, keep people away from it and tell us, rather than cleaning it up.
Materials we deal with
Asbestos cement
Garage roofs, sheds and flues made from asbestos cement are common in surveys of older homes. How weathered and damaged it is affects what to do.
Insulating board
Insulating board can look like ordinary plasterboard or cement board, which is why sampling matters.
For businesses and landlords in Worcester Park
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
If your business premises in Worcester Park were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
What we do and do not cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- 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
- A survey reflects the building on the day; condition can change, so recheck it
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Artex and textured coatings
- Ceiling tiles
- Roofing felt and bitumen
- Boiler cupboards and panels
- Soffits and porch canopies
- Water tanks and flues
- Garage and shed roofs
- Cement sheets and cladding
- Pipe lagging
- Floor tiles and adhesive
Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
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.
How we price an asbestos survey
The biggest factors in the price are:
- Material and condition
- The survey type
- How many outbuildings are included
- The quantity or area
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
Helping us quote
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- An idea of size
- Street parking nearby
- Visible markings
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you are planning. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Your questions about an asbestos survey in Worcester Park
Could my house in Worcester Park contain asbestos?
Any home in Worcester Park built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you survey a school or hall near Worcester Park?
Yes, by arrangement with the duty holder. Non-domestic buildings should have an asbestos register and management plan.
Does a survey leave holes?
A management survey takes small samples, which are sealed afterwards. A refurbishment survey opens up the areas being worked on, which is why they need to be empty.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
What does the survey report include?
Locations, results, condition, photos and what we recommend for each material. Areas not accessed are listed too.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
