A Pre-Purchase Asbestos Survey, also known as a home buyers survey, is a vital part of property due diligence, specifically designed for individuals looking to buy a residential property. Unlike standard home surveys that might only briefly mention asbestos, our specialist survey dives deep. We systematically inspect accessible areas of the property, searching for suspect materials that could contain asbestos. Our surveyors are trained to identify common locations of hidden asbestos, such as within textured coatings (like Artex), floor tiles, pipe lagging, garage roofs, and insulation boards. This essential property inspection is your first line of defence against inheriting an asbestos problem, protecting your family’s home safety and financial wellbeing.
