Asbestos Management Surveys FAQs

An Asbestos Management Survey is designed to locate and assess the presence and condition of any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in a building that could be disturbed or damaged during normal occupancy, including foreseeable maintenance and installation.

This survey is essential to ensure that the management of asbestos in premises is compliant with legal requirements, particularly to minimise the risk of asbestos exposure to occupants and workers during everyday operations and routine building maintenance.

During the survey, a trained specialist will assess your property for asbestos-containing materials. This involves a visual inspection and may include taking samples of materials suspected of containing asbestos for laboratory analysis.

The duration of the survey depends on the size and complexity of the property. Generally, a survey can take anywhere from a few hours to several days for larger or more complex properties. However we ensure you will never be disappointed with the results.

Provide access to all areas of the building, including basements,lofts, and technical or ticky areas to get into. Also, it’s helpful to provide any property blueprints or historical building records that may indicate the presence of asbestos for all our worksmen to swiflty get the job completed with ease.

The results will provide you with a detailed report including the location, condition, and type of any asbestos found. This report is crucial for creating an effective asbestos management plan, ensuring safety, and maintaining regulatory compliance.
