Homebuyer and Landlord Asbestos Survey across Cumbria
Farm buildings with cement sheet roofs, shipyard and industrial sites on the west coast, and Lake District guest houses all need asbestos surveys before work starts.
Standard building surveys often note 'possible asbestos' and advise further investigation. Our homebuyer survey is that investigation: a non-intrusive check of the whole property with samples of anything suspect sent to a UKAS-accredited lab.
Guide price: From £180.

- You are planning work straight after you move in

- You are selling and want to answer buyer questions
