Asbestos survey in Worting

A survey can cover a whole building or only the rooms being refurbished, whichever fits your plans in Worting. We agree the scope with you before we start, so you know exactly what’s covered. From refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms and purchases of older homes and buildings, we deal with textured ceilings, pipe lagging and boiler cupboard panels.

Homes in places like Worting range from older cottages to post-war and later houses, and anything altered before 2000 may contain asbestos, so a survey before work is sensible. We only recommend work that is needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

After we’ve finished in Worting

Where planned work would disturb asbestos, the report says what has to come out first, and whether that work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed.

Going forward:

  • Let us know about locked rooms or unsafe areas
  • For flats, ask the managing agent for the asbestos register for the common parts
  • Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
  • Keep children and pets away from the areas being surveyed

Things not to do

Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so nothing in the work area is left out of scope.

Before the survey, leave suspect materials alone.

How we work

If a material is damaged, we’ll say so before we leave, so you can keep people away. Parking close by makes the day easier.

  1. Call or message us with the address and what’s prompting the survey
  2. We confirm the survey type and which rooms and outbuildings it covers
  3. Our surveyor carries out the inspection and sampling
  4. Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
  5. The written report arrives with the results, condition ratings and next steps

How to prepare

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Keep the area clear of children and pets
  • Clear the way to the work area

Surveying buildings in Worting

Worting is about 2 miles west of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. Properties in Worting range from older houses to newer estates and commercial buildings, and anything built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. We work in all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire. We work right across the region, from Worting to Reading (15 miles away).

If you’re a landlord near Basingstoke station, asbestos information should be ready for contractors before maintenance. Non-domestic buildings, Chiltern Primary School among them, come under the duty to manage asbestos; we survey non-domestic buildings by arrangement with the duty holder.

For properties just outside Worting, we cover Buckskin (1 mile south-east), Winklebury (1 mile north-east), South Ham (1 mile east), Kempshott (1 mile south) and Newfound (1 mile west).

Worting: your questions answered

Do you survey schools and community buildings around Worting?

Yes, working with whoever is responsible for the building. The duty holder should hold an asbestos register.

Do older homes in Worting have asbestos?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Worting may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.

Can you quote from photos?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Does someone need to be there?

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

How quickly can you come out?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.

Does a survey leave holes?

Only minimally for a management survey: sample points are small and sealed. A refurbishment and demolition survey opens up the areas being worked on, by design.

Good to know

Worth knowing before you book:

  • A refurbishment and demolition survey needs the areas to be empty, so timing needs planning
  • A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it isn’t enough before refurbishment
  • A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Materials we see

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

Service details

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The building’s size and layout
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • Lofts, voids and outbuildings to include
  • How much sampling is needed

How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so tell us about access.

What to photograph

Helpful photos:

  • A close-up from a safe distance
  • The access route
  • Where we could park
  • An overall view

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos and the postcode: fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

If you run a business from older premises in Worting, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Weighing up your options

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 are about to work, so refurbishment needs a fresh, intrusive survey of the work areas. Our quotes are clear about VAT.

Why us?

  • Clear notes on any areas not reached
  • Domestic and commercial work
  • Clear written quotes
  • The right survey for your plans

Take a look at how we quote and our cost guide.

Materials we deal with

Floor tiles and adhesive

We can sample tiles and adhesive separately, because one may contain asbestos when the other doesn’t.

Textured coatings

We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, before plasterers or electricians start.

Where asbestos turns up

Asbestos-containing materials were made for decades in many forms, so there is no single place to look.

These are the materials and situations that most often lead to surveys:

  • Public and community buildings
  • Shared halls, stairs and plant rooms
  • Planned refurbishment work
  • Pre-work surveys for trades

What to look for in a quote

  • What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
  • Whether extra samples cost more
  • That the survey follows HSE’s guide HSG264
  • Whether VAT is included

Choosing an asbestos contractor

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