Why Homeowners, Buyers & Trades Recommend Our Surveyors
When you book an asbestos inspection or sample test, you want clear answers without sales pressure or alarmist language. Our reputation across Hampshire is built on practical site discipline, clean working methods, and factual reporting.
Clean, Contained Bulk Sampling
Clients frequently mention how tidy our sampling visits are. Whether we are checking textured Artex ceilings or thermoplastic floor tiles on 1960s and 1970s estates in Basingstoke and Havant, we dampen the material with surfactant to suppress dust, take a discrete cross-sectional sample, double-bag it, and immediately seal the extraction point with filler or sealant.
Plain-English Reports for Buyers & Builders
Mortgage lenders, conveyancing solicitors, and kitchen or heating contractors do not want vague paperwork. As a UKAS-accredited inspection body, BPS logs every room on digital tablets and issues clear registers that distinguish between intact materials safe to manage in place and items that must be disturbed or removed before structural alterations begin.
Safe Non-Licensed Removal & Waste Transfer
Local municipal recycling centres under Portsmouth City Council or Test Valley Borough Council do not allow builders or homeowners to simply tip commercial asbestos waste. When dismantling corrugated cement garage roofs, soffits, or rainwater goods, our operatives wear fitted FFP3 respiratory protection, use Class H vacuum extraction, avoid breaking sheets, and double-bag all waste in UN-approved red and clear sacks with full consignment notes.
What Happens If High-Risk Licensed Materials Are Identified?
Part of why domestic clients trust our advice is that we are upfront about what requires specialist intervention. While we directly carry out non-licensed removals—such as bonded cement roof sheets, downpipes, vinyl floor tiles, and textured coatings—some older properties contain higher-risk materials like sprayed coatings, pipe lagging, or loose-fill insulation.
We never cut corners or attempt licensed work outside regulatory boundaries. Instead, our surveyors safely sample and assess the condition of those materials, explain the exact precautions required, and support you with practical remediation planning and arranging a licensed contractor where necessary.
