Asbestos help in Pinewood Village

Responsibilities for owners

If your business premises in Pinewood Village were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

About our asbestos testing in Pinewood Village

Testing is quick to arrange and gives a definite answer. The result shows whether asbestos was found and, if so, which type, and we will explain what that means for your plans in Pinewood Village. Whether it’s Artex before downlights or rewiring and floor tiles and black adhesive, we cover soffit boards, panels behind heaters and black adhesive.

Properties in Pinewood Village with outbuildings may have roofs worth testing before work. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Weighing up your options

How many samples? Each different material needs its own sample, and sometimes tiles and adhesive or coatings in different rooms need separate samples. There is no one-size price, as every job differs. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.

What you get

  • Management, refurbishment and demolition, and pre-purchase surveys
  • Inaccessible areas listed clearly
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Take a look at how we price jobs and our cost guide.

Good to know

Worth knowing before you book:

  • If the material is in a hard-to-reach place, access may need planning
  • Photos can’t confirm asbestos
  • Identifying the material is the first step; removal is planned separately

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

Common materials

  • Soffit boards
  • Panels behind heaters
  • Artex and textured ceilings
  • Roof felt
  • Pipe lagging
  • Garage roof sheets
  • Floor tiles
  • Flue pipes
  • Water tanks
  • Bitumen adhesive

More about this service

Pinewood Village: your questions answered

Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, though access to rural buildings may need planning.

Do you cover Pinewood Village from London?

We cover Pinewood Village, about 42 miles from central London.

Do you work on commercial premises?

We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.

Do you work in Pinewood Village?

Yes. We cover Pinewood Village and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Tell us the postcode and what you need.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.

What we deal with in Pinewood Village

Builders and plasterers increasingly ask for a test result before starting work on older surfaces, and a written lab result gives them what they need.

Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:

  • Debris found after DIY
  • Porch canopies
  • Garage and shed roofs before removal or repair
  • Boards and panels before a kitchen or bathroom refit

For rented homes around Bentley (Hampshire) station, you can test a material while the property is empty.

What your quote should include

  • The scope of the job, in writing
  • Survey methods in line with HSG264
  • The number of samples
  • That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory

What it might be made of

Floor tiles and adhesive

We test tiles and adhesive separately where needed, because results can differ.

Cement sheets

We sample from the edge of a sheet, without standing on the roof, as asbestos cement roofs are fragile.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
