  • We just paid around £300 for a survey - we went for the 'refurbishment' as opposed to 'management' one which is supposedly a little more invasive but I'm not sure there'd be much in it.

    How much it would cost to remedy depends on where it is and what you do with it - if it is in the wallpaper (we got told ours probably contained it, but it didn't) that will probably be something you could remove yourself if you followed the correct procedure.

    We paid a ridiculous amount (c£600) for a bath panel, a cement panel cupboard lining and some broken roof tiles from the garage roof that were scattered in the garden to be removed - but we had no choice because we had a bath issue that needed fixing and some companies couldn't even quote for the work for three weeks.

    There are companies that do asbestos surveys, companies that do removal, and those that do both - I was a little skeptical of the latter so I got a testing-only company to do the tests just in case the others "find" things that they then need to remove.
