How Much Is An Asbestos Home Survey In Sussex?

Are you considering buying or refurbishing property in Sussex or the South East of England? Your first step should be to commission an asbestos survey to identify any asbestos present. At Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex, we offer professional asbestos surveys at competitive prices.

Why Do You Need An Asbestos Survey?

Asbestos was commonly used in construction until the 1980s and can be found in many buildings, particularly those built before 2000. Asbestos is a hazardous material that can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. If you are planning any refurbishment or demolition work on a property, it is essential to identify any asbestos so that it can be safely removed.

An asbestos survey will identify any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in the property and assess their condition. Based on the survey's findings, we can advise you on the best course of action, whether it is to remove the asbestos or manage it in place.

What Does An Asbestos Survey Involve?

There are two types of asbestos surveys: a management survey and a refurbishment/demolition survey.

A management survey is designed to locate and assess the condition of any ACMs that may be disturbed during normal occupancy, maintenance, or other activities. This survey is typically non-intrusive and may involve taking samples of suspected materials for testing.

A refurbishment/demolition survey is required before any refurbishment or demolition work takes place. This type of survey is more intrusive and involves accessing areas of the property that would not be accessed during normal occupancy. The refurbishment/demolition survey will identify all ACMs in the areas being renovated or demolished and provide recommendations on their safe removal.

How Much Does An Asbestos Survey Cost?

The cost of an asbestos survey varies depending on the type of survey required, the size of the property, and the number of samples required. At Affordable Asbestos Removal Sussex, we offer competitive prices for both management and refurbishment/demolition surveys.

For a management survey, our prices start from 150. This includes a site visit, sampling of up to 3 suspected ACMs, laboratory analysis, and a comprehensive report.

For a refurbishment/demolition survey, our prices start from 300. This includes a site visit, sampling of all suspected ACMs, laboratory analysis, and a comprehensive report.

Additional samples can be taken at 25 per sample. We also offer a discount for multiple surveys carried out at the same time.

What Are The Benefits Of An Asbestos Survey?

By commissioning an asbestos survey, you are taking a proactive approach to managing the health and safety risks associated with asbestos. The benefits of an asbestos survey include:

• Identifying any ACMs in the property, ensuring they are safely managed or removed.
• Keeping you and your family safe from the health risks associated with asbestos exposure.
