Why Is It Necessary?
An asbestos management survey within a commercial/industrial property is the minimum standard required for you to comply with UK law. The survey itself involves discreet, intrusive work with the minimal disturbance to décor and building structures to identify, as far as reasonably practicable, visible asbestos containing materials in all accessible areas of your property.
Failure of the duty holder to commission an asbestos survey as stipulated in the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, risks prosecution by the HSE (Health and Safety Executive) for not fulfilling their legal responsibility, if a member of the public, employee or tenant is exposed to asbestos.
Analysis & Surveys
To confirm the presence of asbestos, our surveyor may take a sample of any suspected asbestos material for analysis at a UKAS accredited laboratory, although a presumption a material could contain asbestos may be made under varying circumstances.

Refurbishment & Demolition Survey
A refurbishment survey should always be carried out where a property or part of a property is having work undertaken to upgrade, refurbish or carry out intrusive maintenance or repair works.
Residential Survey
If you’re buying a new home or carrying out refurbishment or demolition work in a property, identifying asbestos containing materials is essential for any work to be carried out safely and gives piece of mind.
Re-inspection Survey
You have a legal duty to have the condition of all the asbestos inspected to ensure no damage or deterioration of the material has occurred since the last re-inspection or survey (asbestos management survey).
