Independent asbestos surveying — no removal sales
We survey and advise in City of London — 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 City of London clients choose us
Consultancy-grade asbestos surveys for City of London.
City buildings are largely commercial, heavily serviced and rarely empty. The asbestos risk sits in the parts nobody sees — riser cupboards, plant rooms, above suspended ceilings, around old boilers and in floor screeds and adhesives left from earlier fit-outs. Getting into those areas takes coordination with building management, so we scope access, permits and out-of-hours attendance before a surveyor is booked.

Surveys aligned to HSG264. Lab analysis arranged through UKAS 17025 accredited partners.

City of London FAQs
Questions City of London clients ask us most.
How much does an asbestos survey cost in City of London?
Guide prices in City of London start from £160 + VAT for a flat communal-area management survey (up to 3 floors), £200 + VAT for a flat up to 3 bedrooms and £250 + VAT for a house up to 4 bedrooms. Refurbishment surveys are £300 + VAT for a flat and £400 + VAT for a house. Prices are indicative and confirmed by phone or email once the property and scope are known.
Do you sell asbestos removal in City of London?
No. Elements Surveying Group specialises in asbestos surveying, sampling and independent advice. We do not sell asbestos removal, so our recommendations stay focused on the condition, risk and appropriate management of the materials identified.
Which survey do I need before a Cat A or Cat B office fit-out?
A refurbishment and demolition survey covering everything the works will disturb — ceiling voids, risers, partitions, floor finishes and services. A management survey is not sufficient for construction work, and a contractor will normally refuse to start without the R&D report and register.
Can you work around building management, permits and out-of-hours access?
Yes. City instructions are usually delivered outside core hours under the building's permit-to-work regime. We provide RAMS, insurance details and surveyor credentials to building management in advance so induction and access are cleared before the attendance date.
How are commercial surveys priced compared with the residential guide prices?
The published guide prices cover flats and houses. Office floors, retail units and whole buildings are priced on floor area, number of rooms and services, the degree of intrusion required and any out-of-hours working — confirmed in writing after a short scoping call, before anything is booked.
