Why You Need a Domestic Asbestos Survey

Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) can be found in homes across the UK, and if disturbed, they release harmful fibers that can cause severe lung diseases, including asbestosis and mesothelioma. Whether you're a homeowner, landlord, or homebuyer, an asbestos survey gives you the information you need to manage any risks effectively.

 

Buying a Home? Ensure your potential property is asbestos-free before you commit.


Renovating or Extending? Identify asbestos before carrying out any work that could disturb it.


Landlord Responsibilities? Stay compliant with safety regulations and protect your tenants.

Where Can Asbestos Be Found in Homes?

Asbestos was widely used in construction materials before its ban in 1999. It can be present in multiple areas of your home, including:

Interior Areas:

  • Ceilings & Walls – Textured coatings (e.g., Artex), asbestos insulation board (AIB)
  • Flooring – Vinyl floor tiles, adhesive, linoleum
  • Pipe Insulation – Lagging around hot water pipes and boilers
  • Fireplaces – Insulation panels inside older fireplaces
  • Electrical Components – Asbestos flashguards in old fuse boxes

Exterior Areas:

  • Roofing – Asbestos cement sheets, soffits, and guttering
  • Garage & Shed Roofs – Asbestos cement in outbuildings
  • Walls & Cladding – Asbestos cement panels in external walls
  • Drainpipes & Water Tanks – Pre-2000 asbestos cement water tanks and drainage pipes

If asbestos is present in your home, a professional survey helps determine its condition, risks, and next steps for management or removal.
