Independent asbestos surveying and testing — no asbestos removal sales

We survey and advise in Great Dunmow — 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.

Why Great Dunmow clients instruct us

Rural instructions are common here: farm owners and developers need refurbishment and demolition surveys before barn conversions or the removal of old agricultural buildings, where asbestos cement sheeting is frequently present.

In the town, homeowners and buyers instruct surveys before renovating period and mid-century houses, and businesses on the High Street and nearby industrial premises use management surveys to meet the duty to manage. In listed buildings, sampling is planned to minimise intervention.

Asbestos surveys we carry out in Great Dunmow

Management asbestos surveys — for High Street shops and offices, schools, farm premises and commercial units that stay in use. The survey follows HSG264 and produces an asbestos register with material and priority risk scores.

Refurbishment and demolition (R&D) surveys — before barn conversions, removal of agricultural buildings, extensions and house refurbishments. The survey is intrusive within the agreed scope, so the contractor can price and plan the work safely.

Asbestos testing and bulk sampling — where only one or two materials are in question, a BOHS P402 qualified surveyor collects samples under controlled conditions and they are analysed in a UKAS-accredited laboratory. Re-inspections keep an existing register current, recording any change in condition and the recommended actions.

Great Dunmow FAQs

Questions Great Dunmow clients ask us most.

How much does an asbestos survey in Great Dunmow 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 test one material in Great Dunmow without a full survey?

Targeted sampling is £85 + VAT for the first sample and £30 + VAT for each additional sample taken during the same visit. 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 an independent 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.

How quickly is the report issued?

Reports are typically issued within 48–72 hours of the survey visit, once laboratory analysis is complete.

Do you have an office in Great Dunmow?

No. Elements is based in London and our surveyors travel to Great Dunmow for each booking. Surveys are scheduled centrally and quoted at a fixed price before we attend.

Do you sell asbestos removal?

No. Elements Surveying Group carries out asbestos surveying, re-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.

Do you survey barns and farm buildings around Great Dunmow?

Yes. Before a barn conversion or demolition of an agricultural building, a refurbishment and demolition survey identifies asbestos cement roofing, cladding and other materials so the work can be planned and priced properly.
