An area known for its racecourse, Lingfield is not only a vibrant destination linked with the famous course but is also a popular residential village – full of traditional Tudor buildings and examples of how architecture has changed through the ages.
Aside from being a popular visiting place for race goers and historical enthusiasts, Lingfield is home to properties of all types and ages – and somewhere that our team regularly frequent to conduct asbestos surveys. If you live in Lingfield and haven’t yet completed an asbestos survey on your property, then you’ve come to the right place!
What is an asbestos survey?
An asbestos survey is designed to identify the presence of asbestos in a property and assess its structural safety and stability – all contained within a report which outlines the next steps required by the homeowner to ensure the health and safety for residents. Once a common material used in building, many properties which were built prior to the 1990s were constructed using asbestos as an insulating material.
If your property was built prior to 2000 then an asbestos survey is recommended as a means of ascertaining the presence and safety of asbestos – with our team offering two surveys depending on the status of your property.
The first is an asbestos management survey, which starts with a consultation and then a formal survey, after which we will produce a report which outlines the location of any asbestos found and its structural integrity. This will be followed up with a list of recommendations for ongoing management – whether that means removing unsafe asbestos or following up with another survey at a later date.
The second is an asbestos removal survey and subsequent service, which sees our expert team enter the property to safely remove and dispose of the material. This latter survey is a regulatory requirement for any homeowner or developer who is completing renovation or demolition work on an older property where asbestos is present.
How do I know if I need an asbestos survey?
With so many properties in Lingfield constructed and built prior to 2000, there is a high chance that asbestos was used in and is present in many of the homes that make up the village. You do not need to have confirmation or even official suspicions that asbestos may be present in order to book a survey – our team are able to conduct a full survey on any home, giving you the assurance and peace of mind that you need.
To book your survey in Lingfield, all you have to do is get in touch to register your address with our team. A consultant will then be on site to conduct an initial survey within a couple of working days.
