What Is an Asbestos Survey?

An asbestos survey is a thorough inspection of your property to determine whether there is any asbestos-containing material (ACM) present. Asbestos was used extensively in buildings until the 1990s for its fire-resistant and insulating properties.

However, it is now known that asbestos fibers can be hazardous if inhaled, leading to serious health problems such as asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. As a result, it is essential to identify and manage any asbestos in your property to prevent harm to your health.

An asbestos survey involves a visual inspection of your property, and the collection and analysis of samples of any materials suspected of containing asbestos. There are two types of asbestos surveys: a management survey and a refurbishment/demolition survey.

Management Survey

A management survey is the more common type of asbestos survey, suitable for a property that is currently in use. The survey will identify any asbestos-containing materials in your property and assess their condition and risk. The survey report will also provide recommendations for managing any asbestos identified, such as monitoring or removal.

Refurbishment/Demolition Survey

A refurbishment/demolition survey is required when a property is about to undergo major refurbishment or demolition. This survey is more intrusive and involves destructively sampling materials to determine the presence of asbestos. The survey report will provide details on the location, amount, and condition of any asbestos in the property, as well as recommendations for its safe removal.

Why Do You Need an Asbestos Survey?

If your property was built or refurbished before the year 2000, there is a chance that asbestos could be present. This is especially true if your property has insulation, ceiling tiles, floor tiles, or cement-based products.

An asbestos survey is crucial to ensure the safety of you and your family, as well as any contractors or workers who may be exposed to asbestos during any renovation or demolition work. By identifying any asbestos-containing materials in your property, you can implement a safe management plan or take steps to safely remove the asbestos.

How Much Does an Asbestos Survey Cost in Sussex?

The cost of an asbestos survey in Sussex can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the size of your property and the level of detail required in the survey report. However, at Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex, we offer affordable and competitive prices for our asbestos surveys.
