About Asbestos Surveys and Testing in Worthing with our FAQ’s

Do I need an asbestos survey for my property in Sutton, Worthing?
If your property in Sutton or the wider Worthing area was built before 2000, it may contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). An asbestos survey is strongly recommended before refurbishment, demolition, or significant maintenance work. For commercial properties, the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 places a legal duty on those responsible for the building to identify and manage asbestos risks. A professional survey helps protect occupants, contractors and the wider public.
What types of asbestos surveys do you provide from your Worthing head office?

From our Southern head office in Worthing, we provide:

  • Management Asbestos Surveys – Designed to locate and assess ACMs during normal occupation and routine maintenance.

  • Refurbishment and Demolition Surveys – Required before any intrusive works, structural alterations or demolition projects.

Our qualified surveyors carry out thorough inspections in accordance with UK legislation, providing clear and detailed reports to support compliance and safety.

Do you only cover Sutton, or do you operate in other areas from Worthing?

Results are typically returned quickly to avoid delays to your renovation or construction schedule.

What happens if asbestos is found in my Sutton property?

If asbestos-containing materials are identified, you will receive a comprehensive report detailing:

  • The type of asbestos present

  • Its location within the property

  • Its condition and associated risk level

  • Clear recommendations for management or removal

Not all asbestos needs immediate removal. In many cases, materials in good condition can be safely managed in situ. Where removal is necessary, our licensed asbestos removal team can carry out the work safely and in full compliance with UK regulations.
