Asbestos survey across SO22
Managing agents and landlords in SO22 use surveys so trades know what to avoid. Typical jobs include public and community buildings and planned refurbishment work, involving textured ceilings, water tanks and soffits.
If we find something that’s damaged and could be releasing fibres, we tell you on the day, rather than waiting for the report.
- Call or message us with the address and what’s prompting the survey
- We set out the survey type, the areas covered and the price in writing
- Our surveyor carries out the inspection and sampling
- Each sample is analysed by an accredited laboratory
- You receive the report, with results and what to do next
Pricing in SO22
The cost of an asbestos survey depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. Every quote is individual.
Why us?
- Clear advice on your options
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
- Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
- Clear next steps

SO22: surveys for every kind of building
Across SO22, we survey houses, flats, workplaces and buildings before demolition, from Winchester, Hyde and Weeke to small villages.
Winchester: Got an older property in Winchester, close to St Swithun-upon-Kingsgate Church or further out? A refurbishment and demolition survey of the areas affected should come first. For a school like St Bede Church of England Primary School, the duty holder must manage asbestos and keep an asbestos register, and a management survey is usually where that starts.
Prices and what affects them
These are the main things that affect the price of an asbestos survey:
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- The survey type
- Roof spaces and outbuildings in scope
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
Photos that help
What to photograph:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- A rough size or measurement
- A picture of the whole area
- Visible markings
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
Good to know
So you know what to expect:
- A survey reflects the building on the day; materials can deteriorate, so condition should be checked again over time
- A management survey is only minimally intrusive, so it will not do before building work
- The rooms in a refurbishment survey need to be cleared, so timing needs planning
Where asbestos turns up
Over time, materials deteriorate: a board or coating that was sound years ago may now be cracked or crumbling, and the survey assesses condition.
These are some of the things we deal with in SO22:
- Pre-work surveys for trades
- Refurbishment, rewiring and new kitchens or bathrooms
- Community buildings and halls
- Demolition projects
Duty holders and landlords in SO22
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
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.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
SO22: your questions answered
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
Is a homebuyer survey the same as an asbestos survey?
No. It may flag possible asbestos, but it does not normally take samples for analysis. A pre-purchase asbestos survey does.
Do landlords need an asbestos survey?
Duty holders for workplaces and common parts normally need one. Landlords of single homes often use one too, so they know what’s there before work.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
