Asbestos Surveys London & South East
Independent asbestos surveys, testing, sampling and clear reports across London and the South East. Survey-only advice for homeowners, landlords, commercial property owners, contractors and dutyholders.


Clear Asbestos Survey Support for Homeowners, Landlords and Managed Properties.
247 Asbestos Services helps clients understand whether asbestos-containing materials are present, what condition they are in and what needs to happen next. We are not an asbestos removal company, so our advice is evidence-led and not driven by a removal upsell.
For London homeowners, landlords and property managers, an asbestos survey can provide clarity before renovation work, rental decisions, property purchases, communal area management or contractor access.
This page brings together London, Surrey and South East coverage into one stronger regional hub, replacing multiple thin town and borough pages with one clearer, more useful page.

A Clear Process From Survey Scope to Final Report.
The right asbestos survey depends on the property, the reason for the inspection and whether the building will remain occupied, be refurbished or be demolished.
Scope The Survey
We confirm the property type, access requirements, survey reason and whether a management or R&D survey is required.
Inspect & Sample
A P402 qualified surveyor inspects accessible areas and takes samples where required for laboratory testing.
Analyse Findings
Samples are analysed by a UKAS-accredited laboratory, with material assessments and practical recommendations included.
Issue The Report
You receive a clear report, usually within 24–48 hours, with findings that can support an asbestos register or management plan.
Clear Reports for Decisions, Records and Next Steps.
The purpose of an asbestos survey is not just to identify materials. It should give you a clear record of what was inspected, what was sampled, where asbestos was found and what should happen next.
Reports can support property transactions, planned works, landlord responsibilities, commercial management, dutyholder records and contractor planning.
Helpful Resources Before You Book a Survey.
These guides are being rebuilt as part of the new 247 Asbestos Services resource library. They help explain survey types, likely costs, legal responsibilities and when testing may be required.
London & South East asbestos survey questions.
A few common questions from clients arranging asbestos surveys, testing or reports across London, Surrey and the South East.
Do you cover all London boroughs?
We support clients across London and the wider South East, including central, west, north, east and south London boroughs. The exact survey scope depends on access, property type and the reason for the inspection.
What type of asbestos survey do I need?
If the building is occupied and being managed, you may need a management survey. If works are planned, you may need a refurbishment and demolition asbestos survey.
Can you test a single material?
Yes. If you only need a specific material checked, our asbestos testing and sampling service may be suitable.
How quickly will I receive the report?
Reports are typically issued within 24–48 hours, depending on survey scope, sample analysis and laboratory turnaround.
Do you carry out asbestos removal?
No. 247 Asbestos Services is survey-led and independent. We identify, test and report on asbestos-containing materials, but we do not use surveys to sell asbestos removal work.
How much does an asbestos survey cost?
The cost depends on the survey type, property size, access, number of samples and reporting requirements. We are rebuilding a full asbestos survey cost guide to help explain the main pricing factors.
