WHAT WE DO BEST
Professional Asbestos Surveys In Barking
We carry out asbestos surveys for residential, commercial, industrial, and public-sector properties across Barking, helping property owners and duty holders remain compliant and safely manage asbestos risks.

Management
Surveys
Suitable for occupied buildings, management surveys identify and assess asbestos-containing materials to help ensure they remain safely managed during normal use of the property.

Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys
These intrusive surveys are required before refurbishment, structural alterations, or demolition works and help identify asbestos within the areas affected by planned works.

Reinspection
Surveys
Reinspection surveys are used to reassess previously identified asbestos-containing materials and monitor their condition over time as part of ongoing asbestos management.

Bulk Sampling & Testing
Where a full survey is not required, suspected materials can be sampled and tested independently to confirm whether asbestos is present.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an asbestos survey and what is involved?
An asbestos survey is carried out to identify any asbestos-containing materials within a property and assess the risk they may present. Depending on the type of survey, this can include visual inspections, material sampling, laboratory testing, and detailed reporting with recommendations for safe management.
I’m not sure which asbestos survey I need — can you help?
Yes. Different properties and projects require different survey types, so we’ll discuss your situation and recommend the most appropriate option based on the building, planned works, and legal requirements involved.
Why is asbestos considered dangerous?
Asbestos can become hazardous when fibres are released into the air and inhaled. This usually happens when asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, damaged, or deteriorate over time. Proper identification and management helps reduce the risk of exposure.
Could asbestos still be present in my property?
Properties built before 2000 may still contain asbestos in areas such as insulation, ceilings, floor tiles, textured coatings, roofing materials, or service ducts. A professional survey is the safest way to confirm whether asbestos is present.
What should I do if I think a material contains asbestos?
Avoid disturbing the material and seek professional advice before carrying out any work. Damaging suspected asbestos-containing materials without proper controls can increase the risk of fibre release and exposure.
what should i expect to pay for a professional asbestos survey?
Survey costs vary depending on factors such as the property size, survey type, accessibility, and whether sampling is required. We provide clear quotations upfront with no hidden costs.
