We survey and advise in Barnet — 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.
How we workWhy Barnet clients choose us

Barnet is London's largest borough by population and one of its most varied: 1930s semi-detached suburbia across Finchley, Hendon and Edgware, purpose-built 1960s and 1970s flat blocks around Colindale and Burnt Oak, Victorian stock in Chipping Barnet and New Barnet, and a substantial extension and loft-conversion market that regularly triggers refurbishment surveys before work starts.

Barnet FAQs
Questions Barnet clients ask us most.
How much does an asbestos survey in Barnet cost?
Published Management Survey prices start at £225 + VAT for communal areas serving one or two floors, £250 + VAT for a studio or one-bedroom flat and £300 + VAT for a one- or two-bedroom house. Whole-property Refurbishment Survey prices start at £350 + VAT for a flat and £400 + VAT for a house. Larger properties, commercial premises and portfolios receive an individually fixed quotation before booking.
Can you take samples in Barnet without a full survey?
Targeted sampling is £85 + VAT for one sample, £115 for two, £145 for three, £175 for four, £205 for five and £235 for six; each further sample during the same attendance is £30 + VAT. Sampling covers specific materials only — it is not a full survey. If building work is planned, a refurbishment and demolition survey scoped to those works is the correct instruction.
Who analyses the samples?
Samples are analysed in a UKAS-accredited laboratory to ISO/IEC 17025. Elements Surveying Group is a surveying consultancy — we do not operate the laboratory, and we do not sell asbestos removal, so nothing in a report is written to win removal work.
Can you collect keys for a Barnet property?
Yes. Where it is arranged beforehand our surveyor can collect keys from an agent, carry out the survey and return them afterwards, so you do not need to attend. Evening and weekend appointments are offered where surveyor schedules allow.
How quickly is the report issued?
Reports are normally issued within 48–72 hours of the survey visit, once laboratory analysis is complete, and are guaranteed within 72 hours where that has been agreed at quotation.
Do you sell asbestos removal?
No. Elements Surveying Group carries out asbestos surveying, inspection and bulk sampling only. Because we do not sell removal, our reports set out what is present, its condition and the proportionate options — including leaving material in place and managing it under a register.
I am converting a Barnet loft — which survey do I need?
A refurbishment survey scoped to the loft, the ceiling below it and any service routes affected. It is intrusive within that scope, which is what allows the contractor to work safely and what building control and most contractors will ask to see.
Barnet is one of the London boroughs we cover. See our asbestos surveying service across London.
