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 Waltham Abbey clients choose us
Waltham Abbey has a historic town centre around the abbey church, substantial post-war housing estates, and industrial and trade premises close to the M25. The Lea Valley's horticultural heritage also leaves glasshouse sites, packing sheds and outbuildings where asbestos cement is often found, particularly when sites are redeveloped.
Surveys aligned to HSG264 by BOHS P402 qualified surveyors. Samples analysed in a UKAS-accredited laboratory to ISO/IEC 17025. Fixed Prices. No Surprises.

Commercial and industrial occupiers near the M25 use management surveys to meet the duty to manage, and developers instruct refurbishment and demolition surveys before clearing older sheds, glasshouse buildings and units.
Landlords and managing agents of the post-war estates need registers for communal areas, and homeowners ask us to check houses before extensions and refits.
Management asbestos surveys — for industrial and trade units, offices, shops and communal areas of flats 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 redevelopment of sheds and outbuildings, strip-out of units, extensions and home 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.

Waltham Abbey FAQs
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.
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.
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.
Reports are typically issued within 48–72 hours of the survey visit, once laboratory analysis is complete.
No. Elements is based in London and our surveyors travel to Waltham Abbey for each booking. Surveys are scheduled centrally and quoted at a fixed price before we attend.
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.
A demolition survey of the buildings to be removed. It is fully intrusive so that asbestos cement and any other materials are identified and can be dealt with before demolition.
