WHY CHOOSE US?
The right type of survey for your situation – a management survey if you need an ongoing picture of the building, or a refurbishment and demolition survey if you’re about to start invasive work.
A report you can actually use – clear findings, material locations, condition assessments, and recommendations, not a dense technical document that needs translating.
Fast turnaround – because surveys are often the thing holding up a house sale, a renovation start date, or a compliance deadline, and we know that matters.
WHY THIS MATTERS
There are two main types of survey, and using the wrong one for the situation is a common and costly mistake. A management survey is for buildings in normal use, it identifies asbestos likely to be disturbed during everyday occupation and maintenance, and feeds into an ongoing management plan. A refurbishment and demolition survey is far more invasive, involving inspection of areas that would normally be left undisturbed (inside walls, under floors, above ceilings), because it’s specifically designed to make sure nothing is missed before construction work begins. If you’re planning any building work and only have a management survey, it isn’t sufficient — this is one of the most common gaps that causes problems mid-project when asbestos is found unexpectedly. Our team will assess and recommend the best route for your specific situation.

FAQs
What's the difference between a management survey and a refurbishment/demolition survey?
A management survey covers a building in normal use and identifies asbestos likely to be disturbed by everyday activity and routine maintenance. A refurbishment and demolition survey is more invasive, inspecting areas that would usually be left alone — because it’s designed to catch everything before construction work starts, when disturbance is guaranteed.
Which type of survey do I need?
If you’re not planning any building work, a management survey is usually sufficient. If you’re planning renovation, extension, or demolition work of any kind, you need a refurbishment and demolition survey — a management survey isn’t enough and using the wrong one is a common, costly mistake.
Do I need a survey to sell my house?
It’s not always a legal requirement for residential sales, but many buyers’ solicitors now request one, particularly for older properties, and having it ready can prevent delays during conveyancing.
How long does a survey take, and how quickly will I get the report?
Most residential surveys take a few hours on site. Turnaround for the written report depends on whether samples need lab analysis, but we prioritise fast turnaround where a sale, project start date, or compliance deadline is waiting on it.
Will the survey involve any damage to my property?
A management survey involves minimal disturbance. A refurbishment/demolition survey is more invasive by necessity, since it needs to check areas that will be affected by the planned work — we’ll explain exactly what’s involved before booking..
What happens after the survey if asbestos is found?
The report will tell you what’s present, its condition, and our recommendation — which might be removal, encapsulation, or simply ongoing management, depending on the material and your plans for the building. We can quote for any follow-up work needed.
