We provide asbestos surveys for all domestic (homes, bungalows, houses and flats) and commercial properties (offices, schools, shops, warehouses, pubs, hotels and many other commercial buildings) across the UK.
Unlike others, our asbestos survey services are undertaken by accredited asbestos surveyors who are also building surveyors to provide that extra detail in relation to building type, build materials and methodologies.
All surveys and reports are UKATA accredited meeting all the requirements of HSG-264, provided at fixed fees with no extra hidden costs.
A management survey is the standard survey and the one that all commercial buildings must have by law under The Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR20012).
Management surveys will often involve minor intrusive building material sampling. A management survey will include an assessment of the condition of the various asbestos containing materials (ACMs) and their ability to release fibres into the air.
The survey will usually involve collecting samples for analysis in our laboratory which will confirm the presence or absence of ACMs. Any materials presumed to contain asbestos must also have their condition assessed.
Formerly known as Type 2 Asbestos survey.
This survey is required before any work can be carried out on, or in a building, and level of intrusion will be significantly greater than with management surveys.
The survey include accessing structural areas, between floors and walls and underground services. Some areas may be difficult to gain entry to and may need specialist assistance or equipment.
Formerly known as Type 3 Asbestos survey.
Demolition surveys are intended to locate all the asbestos in the building (or the relevant part). It is a disruptive and fully intrusive survey which may need to penetrate all parts of the building structure.
Aggressive inspection techniques will be needed to lift carpets and tiles, break through walls, ceilings, cladding, partitions and open-up floors.

“Very responsive to emails and were the quickest company to give me a quote. Provided a professional and very detailed but clear report following my survey.”

HICH LTD’s property surveys are not only the best in the UK surveyor market. They are also the ones with the best value for money.
If you want to hire a service of the highest quality and not pay thousands of £, the best thing you can do is contact HICH LTD.
Thanks for the service!
Excellent surveying company. I needed a complete structure survey for one of the properties I was going to buy, thanks to HICH LTD it was possible to detect several structural problems that the seller agreed to repair before handing over the property to me.
They were very responsible and contacted me very soon to give me the full property report. I am very grateful to the HICH LTD team for their wonderful work. They are the best.
I have hired the services of this company for roof surveys, full structural surveys, bespoke surveys, and even a self-assessment survey a couple of days ago.
They always do an excellent job and answer any questions you may have. They have an expert eye to detect damage that are not seen with the naked eye, thanks to that I have saved a lot of money that I would have otherwise spent on future repairs.
