A closer look at the materials

Textured coatings

We sample textured coatings in the rooms in scope, so you know before plastering or rewiring.

Pipe lagging

Old lagging is one of the higher-risk materials. It’s licensed work.

Why people call us in Wraysbury

Contractors working on buildings need to know where asbestos is before they start. HSE’s campaigns aimed at tradespeople make this point repeatedly, and a survey report is how they find out.

These come up again and again:

  • Planned refurbishment work
  • Buying a property built before 2000
  • Checks on rental property
  • Schools, halls and community buildings

Planning work on an older building in Wraysbury, whether near Church of St Andrew or elsewhere? The rooms being worked on need surveying before the builders arrive.

What to look for in a quote

  • The scope of the job, in writing
  • Areas included and excluded
  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab

Read the checklist

What happens next

After the survey you get a written report: locations, results, condition and recommendations for every material in scope.

Some practical advice:

  • Ask for the report in a format you can share with contractors
  • Survey first, then book the trades
  • Clear access to lofts, garages, cupboards and outbuildings
  • Share any previous surveys or drawings

Don’ts

Tell the surveyor everything you are planning, so the survey covers every area that will be disturbed.

Book the survey before the builders, so there is time to deal with anything it finds.

Weighing up your options

Some people skip the survey and hope for the best. Finding asbestos halfway through a job means stopping work, extra cost and possible exposure, so surveying first is normally cheaper in the end. Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

Why choose us

  • Covering London and the South East
  • Jobs planned to HSE guidance
  • Quotes that spell out the scope
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder

The process

If we find something that is damaged and could be releasing fibres, we tell you on the day, so you can keep people away. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we’ll do before we start.

  1. Describe the property, its age and the work you have in mind
  2. We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
  3. We carry out the survey on site
  4. Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
  5. The report sets out what was found and what to do next

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Let us know if something’s broken

Good to know

A few things to be aware of:

  • Areas we can’t safely reach are listed in the report, and must be treated as containing asbestos until checked
  • A survey identifies asbestos; it does not remove it, though we can quote for that too
  • A management survey does not open up walls, floors or ceilings, so it will not do before building work

If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
