Survey types
A management survey is for normal occupation and maintenance access. A refurbishment or demolition survey is more intrusive and is used before strip-out or opening-up. We will not sell one as if it were the other.
Common parts versus a single let
A single private house that is purely domestic is a different duty from a house converted to flats with shared halls. Landlords of non-domestic parts and many blocks need to manage asbestos in common areas. Inside a tenanted dwelling, access and type of survey still follow the planned works. Not every rented terrace automatically needs a full commercial-style survey.
Testing
Sampling suspect material is part of a scoped visit when needed. Do not post debris. Results belong on a register with locations — a lone sample is not a building-wide all-clear. Analysis method is confirmed at quote time. We do not advertise a consumer kit price.
What we do not do here
Licensed asbestos removal is not this service. If the survey says removal is required, appoint a suitable licensed contractor. Re-inspections check condition of items already on a register. A first visit to an unknown building is usually a survey, not a ten-minute glance. Quotes for surveys are POA after age, access and planned works are known.
Common questions
Which survey do I need?
A management survey is for normal occupation. A refurbishment or demolition survey is for intrusive works. Tell us the planned work.
Do you remove asbestos?
Not as a licensed removal contractor on this page. If removal is required we say so and you appoint a suitable licensed contractor.
What does it cost?
POA. Size, age, access and how intrusive the survey must be all change the quote. We do not publish a fake starting price.
