What is an Asbestos Survey?

An asbestos survey is an inspection of a building or property to identify any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) that may be present. There are two types of asbestos surveys: management surveys and refurbishment/demolition surveys.

A management survey is designed to identify any ACMs that may be present in a building that may be disturbed or damaged over time. A refurbishment/demolition survey is a more intrusive survey that is required when a building or property is being demolished, refurbished, or undergoing major alterations.

Why Do You Require Asbestos Survey?

If you own or manage a property in Sussex that was constructed before the year 2000, it is likely that it contains asbestos-containing materials. These materials can pose a risk to health if they are disturbed or damaged, releasing dangerous fibers into the air. Undertaking an asbestos survey is the first step in identifying any asbestos-containing materials that may be present.

Once an asbestos survey has been undertaken, a management plan can be put in place to manage any asbestos-containing materials that may be present. If a refurbishment/demolition survey has been undertaken and asbestos-containing materials have been identified, a licensed contractor will need to remove the materials before any further work can be carried out.

What Does An Asbestos Survey Take Into Account?

An asbestos survey takes into account the likely presence of asbestos-containing materials in a building or property. The survey will identify the type and condition of any ACMs that may be present, as well as the likelihood of them being disturbed or damaged.

The survey will also take into account the building or property's age, use, and type of construction. It will identify areas of the building or property that are inaccessible and cannot be surveyed. The survey will also consider any previous asbestos surveys that have been carried out.

How Much Does An Asbestos Survey Cost?

The cost of an asbestos survey depends on several factors, including the type of survey required, the size of the building or property, and the location. A management survey will usually cost less than a refurbishment/demolition survey.
