the facts

Asbestos was used across UK buildings right up to the 1999 ban — roof sheets, floor tiles, textured coatings and beyond. A qualified asbestos survey identifies precisely what's there and whether it can stay or needs to be managed.

Does your property contain asbestos? If your home predates 2000, it's a real possibility.

Transparent pricing

No hidden costs. No pressure to buy additional services you don't need. Just clear, honest pricing and reports you can actually understand — delivered next day where required.

Built for every type of property

Whether it's a single domestic property or a large commercial contract, we bring the same level of care and diligence to every job.

Homeowners

If your home was built before 2000, asbestos-containing materials may be present in ceiling tiles, floor tiles, pipe lagging, textured coatings and more. They're not always dangerous — but knowing what you have puts you in full control before any work begins.

Contractors & Developers

Refurbishment or demolition planned? We protect your programme. Fast mobilisation, next-day R&D survey reports and clear removal project management keep your project on schedule and fully compliant with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 — removing the risk of costly site shutdowns.

Landlords & Property Managers

Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, landlords have a legal duty to manage asbestos in the common parts of HMOs and non-domestic properties. We help landlords across Cambridgeshire meet that duty with thorough surveys, clear registers and ongoing re-inspection programmes.

02 — Removal Project Management

Asbestos Removal, Managed for You

We don't carry out removals ourselves — and that's deliberate. When your survey shows removal is needed, we project-manage the whole process: sourcing licensed contractors, overseeing the work, and confirming full compliance with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. Because we're not the ones doing the removal, our recommendations are based purely on what the survey shows — never on what's most profitable for us.

  • Licensed removal contractors sourced and managed on your behalf

  • Non-licensed removal work coordinated and supervised

  • Encapsulation and sealing works overseen through to sign-off

  • Decontamination, waste disposal & certification confirmed and filed

Asbestos survey FAQs

Everything you need to know about asbestos surveys, management plans and your legal obligations.

common questions

What is an asbestos management survey?

An asbestos management survey is a non-intrusive inspection of a building carried out by a BOHS qualified surveyor to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, all asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) that could be disturbed during normal occupancy or in foreseeable maintenance and installation work. It identifies the type, location and condition of each ACM, forms the basis of your asbestos register, and is the most common starting point for homeowners and landlords.

How much does an asbestos survey cost in the UK?

Asbestos management surveys for a typical domestic property start from £125.00 with Envion Group. Refurbishment and demolition surveys are priced on application depending on the scope and size of planned works. The final cost depends on property size, type, access requirements and how many samples need to be taken for laboratory analysis.

What is the difference between a management survey and a refurbishment and demolition survey?

A management survey is a non-intrusive assessment suitable for buildings in normal use. A refurbishment and demolition (R&D) survey is a more intrusive inspection required by law before any renovation or demolition work. It locates all ACMs — including those hidden within the building fabric — that could be disturbed during planned works. Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, carrying out an R&D survey before any such work is a legal requirement.

Do I need an asbestos survey before renovation or demolition?

Yes — it is a legal requirement. Under Regulation 5 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, a refurbishment and demolition survey must be carried out before any work that may disturb asbestos-containing materials. Any building constructed before 2000 may contain asbestos. Failure to survey before works can expose workers and occupants to asbestos fibres and may result in prosecution, significant fines and site shutdowns.

Who is legally responsible for managing asbestos in a building?

Under Regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 — the 'duty to manage' — the person responsible for maintaining or repairing non-domestic premises has a legal duty to manage the risk from asbestos. For HMOs and non-domestic properties, landlords must carry out a suitable assessment of the premises and maintain an up-to-date asbestos register and management plan.

How long does an asbestos survey take?

For a standard domestic property, an asbestos management survey typically takes between one and three hours on site. Envion Group offers next-day report turnaround on most surveys, meaning you receive your full asbestos report — complete with photographs, material locations and recommendations — within 24 hours of the survey being completed.

Is asbestos still found in UK buildings?

Yes. Asbestos was widely used in UK construction until it was fully banned in 1999. Any building constructed or refurbished before 2000 may contain asbestos-containing materials such as ceiling tiles, floor tiles, pipe lagging, roof coverings, textured coatings (such as Artex), boiler insulation and more. It is estimated that asbestos is present in around 1.5 million buildings in the UK.

What does an Envion Group asbestos survey report include?

Every Envion Group survey report includes: a complete asbestos register listing all identified and presumed ACMs; the location, type and extent of each material; a condition and risk assessment for each ACM; photographic evidence; management or removal recommendations; and, where bulk samples have been taken, UKAS laboratory analysis certificates independently verified to the national standard.
