Get my survey quoteIndependent asbestos surveying and testing — no asbestos removal sales
We survey and advise in Great Yarmouth — we do not sell the removal work.
Elements Surveying Group specialises in asbestos surveying, sampling and independent advice. We do not sell asbestos removal services, so our survey recommendations remain focused on the condition, risk and appropriate management of the material identified.
Where removal or remedial work is genuinely required, we explain what that normally involves and what a licensed contractor would need — then leave you free to appoint whoever you choose.

Do I need an asbestos survey for my Great Yarmouth property?
Buildings constructed or refurbished before 2000 are more likely to contain asbestos-containing materials. For non-domestic premises, the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 places a duty to manage asbestos on the relevant dutyholder. Before refurbishment or demolition work that could disturb the building fabric, an appropriate asbestos survey should be carried out where asbestos may be present, so the risks can be identified and managed before work begins.
