Asbestos in Farnham
Farnham is an affluent Surrey market town known for its Georgian streets, former hop-growing and brewing trade, and surrounding interwar and post-war housing. Its older homes, former maltings and industrial buildings, and mid-century housing commonly contain artex, asbestos insulating board, lagging and asbestos cement garages and outbuildings.
Whatever you’re dealing with, we make Farnham properties safe the right way — identified, proven in the lab, and either contained or removed with paperwork that satisfies lenders, buyers and the HSE.

Asbestos Surveys in Farnham: FAQs
Do I need a survey before renovating a period home in Farnham?
Yes — Farnham's Georgian and Victorian homes have usually been altered over the years, leaving artex, AIB and old floor tiles. A refurbishment and demolition survey before work is a legal requirement under the Control of Asbestos Regulations.
What does an asbestos survey cost in Farnham?
A management survey for a typical home starts from around £200, with single samples from £50 to £80. We confirm pricing before attending across Farnham and the surrounding GU postcodes.
Which asbestos survey do I actually need?
If the building is staying as-is, a management survey satisfies your legal duty to manage. If you are refurbishing or demolishing any part of it, the law requires the more intrusive refurbishment & demolition survey before work begins. We will confirm the right one free of charge.
How long does an asbestos survey take?
A domestic management survey is often done in a single morning. Larger commercial premises or intrusive refurbishment surveys take longer, but we return UKAS-analysed results and the full report typically within 48 hours of the site visit.
