Asbestos is a mineral that was once widely used in construction materials due to its heat-resistant properties. However, following the discovery of its harmful effects on human health, the use of asbestos has been banned in most countries. The presence of asbestos in buildings poses a significant risk to health and can cause serious respiratory diseases. As a result, asbestos surveys are now mandatory before any refurbishment or demolition work takes place.

If you are planning a refurbishment or significant renovation to your property, you may require a refurbishment asbestos survey. This type of survey is designed to identify any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) that may become damaged, disturbed or removed during the refurbishment or demolition work.
Our team will conduct a thorough inspection of the building and take samples of any suspected ACMs. We will then send these samples to a UKAS accredited laboratory for analysis to confirm the presence or absence of asbestos. We will then provide you with a detailed report outlining the location, type and condition of any ACMs within the building, along with recommendations for their safe removal or management.
A management asbestos survey is typically required for non-domestic properties to identify any ACMs present within the building that may pose a risk to health. This type of survey is designed to identify ACMs that are likely to be disturbed during normal occupancy and maintenance of the building.

Asbestos surveys in Sussex are carried out in accordance with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. These regulations impose a duty to manage asbestos in non-domestic properties and require the identification and assessment of ACMs within the property.
All asbestos surveys should be carried out by UKAS accredited asbestos survey companies with experienced and trained asbestos surveyors. Surveys should be carried out in accordance with HSG264 Asbestos: The Survey Guide, which sets out the procedures for conducting asbestos surveys.
Asbestos surveys are necessary to identify and manage the presence of asbestos in buildings. ACMs can pose a significant risk to health, particularly when they become damaged or disturbed, releasing asbestos fibres into the air. Asbestos fibres are known to cause serious respiratory diseases, including lung cancer, mesothelioma and asbestosis.
The identification and safe removal or management of ACMs is essential to protect the health and safety of occupants, employees and contractors working within the building. Asbestos surveys provide property owners and managers with the information needed to ensure that ACMs are safely managed and that any risks are minimised.
If you own or manage a non-domestic property in Sussex and are planning any refurbishment or demolition work, you may require an asbestos survey to identify and manage any ACMs present within the building.
