Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that is fire-resistant, durable and HVAC. Asbestos was widely used in the building industry to strengthen cement, insulate walls and ceilings, and fireproof textiles. The use of asbestos was banned in 1999 in the UK because of its role in causing cancer.
Asbestos is dangerous when the fibers become airborne and inhaled. The fibers become trapped in the lungs, leading to lung cancer, mesothelioma, and other respiratory diseases. Asbestos can be found in old buildings, including schools, hospitals, and homes built before 2000.
An asbestos survey is a comprehensive inspection of a property to detect the presence of asbestos. The survey identifies any type of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) found in the property, their location, and condition. The survey provides recommendations on the management, refurbishment or demolition of the property.
Asbestos surveys are required by law for all non-domestic properties built before 2000. The survey helps to protect people from the dangers of asbestos by providing necessary information to building owners, facility managers or maintenance personnel about the materials on their property.
There are three types of asbestos surveys:
Asbestos management surveys are necessary for all non-domestic properties to comply with regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR) 2012. This survey is also known as a "Type 2 survey" and is carried out to identify and manage asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in the building.
An asbestos management survey is a visual inspection of the property to identify any ACMs that may be damaged or deteriorating, posing a risk to health. The survey results in an asbestos register detailing the location, condition, and type of ACMs in the property.
Refurbishment and demolition surveys are required when refurbishing or demolishing a building. This survey is also known as a "Type 3 survey" and involves intrusive inspections that may damage or disturb the structure.
A refurbishment and demolition survey aims to identify all ACMs in the property that may be disturbed during refurbishment or demolition. The results of the survey are included in a demolition or refurbishment survey report, which recommends how to manage, remove or repair the ACMs before the refurbishment or demolition.
An asbestos re-inspection survey is necessary when ACMs are present in the building. This survey is a visual inspection, necessary to identify any changes in the condition or location of ACMs in the property. The survey assesses the effectiveness of the current management plan of asbestos-containing materials in a building.
