Our story

Independent by design.

Elements Surveying Group was founded by a small team of qualified asbestos consultants — with over 20 years of combined asbestos industry experience between them — frustrated with an industry dominated by removal-led service providers, where the company writing the survey often had a commercial interest in finding asbestos to remove.

We made a deliberate choice never to undertake removal works ourselves. That single decision shapes everything: our advice is structurally impartial, our risk assessments are unbiased, and our clients trust that our recommendations are driven only by what their estate needs.

We work with homeowners, landlords, property managers, businesses, contractors and developers across London, Essex, Kent and the surrounding South East — but our approach hasn't changed. Every project is led by a qualified consultant, every report withstands audit, and every client conversation is a long-term one.

Our mission

To make asbestos compliance defensible, proportionate and free of commercial conflict — so the people responsible for UK buildings can act with confidence.

Our values

Four principles that guide every engagement.

Independence

We do not undertake asbestos removal. Our advice is structurally impartial — no upstream sales agenda, no conflict of interest.

Technical rigour

Every survey is delivered to HSG264 methodology, with material and priority risk scoring documented to a standard that withstands audit.

Long-term relationships

We measure success in client retention, not single transactions.

Independent

Every survey is carried out by experienced BOHS P402 qualified asbestos surveyors, in line with HSG264 and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.
