Asbestos surveying in Plymouth
BOHS P402 asbestos surveys for homes, businesses and the public sector across Plymouth - management, refurbishment and demolition surveys to HSG264, with UKAS-accredited analysis - plus HSE-licensed removal, if asbestos is confirmed.
Asbestos surveys, done properly in Plymouth
Plymouth's post-war rebuild, its naval dockyard heritage and the Victorian terraces still standing in Stonehouse, Greenbank and Mutley mean a lot of properties where nobody is quite sure what's in the walls, ceilings or pipework - especially anything built or renovated before the 1999 UK-wide asbestos ban. A management or refurbishment survey is the fastest way to find out before you buy, let, renovate or demolish.
Our BOHS P402 surveyors carry out management, refurbishment and demolition surveys to HSG264 across Plymouth and the surrounding area, with sampling and UKAS-accredited laboratory analysis where it's needed. You get a clear report, a usable asbestos register and honest recommendations, not a document that sits in a drawer. If asbestos is confirmed, we're also HSE-licensed for the removal, so the two can run as one job.
Reports and your asbestos register are available anytime through our secure Online Survey Reports area, so you and your team always have access.

A management survey suits day-to-day occupation. A refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before any intrusive work, because it locates asbestos a management survey would not disturb. We confirm the right type for your Plymouth property and never over-specify.
We are based at Shapwick House in Poole and travel to Plymouth for planned survey work, so this is usually scheduled rather than same-day. Tell us your dates when you call and we will confirm honestly what we can commit to.

Yes. We are HSE-licensed for removal as well as surveying, so if the survey confirms asbestos, we can quote for the removal straight away instead of bringing in a separate contractor.
