The types of asbestos surveys we provide

Management Asbestos Survey

This is the first type of asbestos surveys and it's also one of the most simple. The management survey is intended for the control and management of asbestos. The purpose of the management survey is to allow building users to identify potential asbestos sources and their conditions. This allows them, for instance, to monitor and take action if they notice that things are getting worse.


The management survey is usually performed by a visual inspection. It identifies the state of all asbestos-containing materials as well as any potential hazards during normal occupancy. This type of survey requires minimal sampling, and only minor intrusive works. Without taking samples, the surveyor could conclude that some materials might contain asbestos.


Refurbishment and Demolition Asbestos Survey

Construction work is the best time to disturb asbestos-containing material. If materials have been removed and their fibers released, they can easily be inhaled. If asbestos fibres are inhaled into the lungs, it can lead to fatal asbestos diseases. How can you tell if your lungs have been exposed to asbestos? You will not be able identify asbestos-containing material until you have done so. These aren't immediate symptoms. You may die 20 years from now if you don't do anything.


If materials are being removed from a building or other type of construction, then a refurbishment-and-demolition survey (previously known to be a 3 survey) will be required. When construction work is planned, it's important to conduct a refurbishment or demolition survey. Refurbishment, maintenance, and demolition of building materials are all part of this process.
