We survey and advise in Richmond upon Thames — 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 Richmond upon Thames clients choose us
Independent asbestos surveys for Richmond upon Thames.
Richmond's stock is predominantly Victorian, Edwardian and 1930s housing across Twickenham, Teddington, East Sheen, Barnes and Kew, much of it in conservation areas and much of it heavily refurbished between the 1960s and 1990s. Side-return extensions, loft conversions and outbuilding replacements are the usual triggers for a refurbishment survey, while riverside commercial and school estates need management surveys and re-inspections.
UKAS-accredited laboratory analysis
Surveys aligned to HSG264 by BOHS P402 qualified surveyors. Samples analysed in a UKAS-accredited laboratory to ISO/IEC 17025. Fixed Prices. No Surprises.

Richmond upon Thames FAQs
Questions Richmond upon Thames clients ask us most.
How much does an asbestos survey in Richmond upon Thames 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 Richmond upon Thames 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 Richmond upon Thames 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.
Do you survey schools and nurseries in the borough?
Yes. School estates are surveyed to HSG264 with management surveys and periodic re-inspections, scheduled around half-term or out of hours where the site requires it.
