Management Asbestos Survey
A Management Survey is required to allow you to monitor and manage asbestos-containing materials during the normal occupation and use of your premises.
It will normally take the form of a visual inspection, with a minimum of intrusive work and material sampling where appropriate.
Refurbishment/
Demolition Surveys
A Refurbishment/Demolition Survey must take place prior to major refurbishment, remedial works or demolition of a premises. In other words, prior to any work that goes beyond the remit of the original management asbestos survey. Particularly where works are invasive; new heating systems, windows, ceilings or electrical.
Re-inspection Asbestos Survey
Should you encounter the phrase ‘re-inspection asbestos survey’, this relates to the management aspects of the Control of Asbestos Regulations CAR 2012.
As part of the ‘management plan’, any ACM’s should be reinspected following any material changes or at least annually.
ASBESTOS – The Hidden Killer
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that is typically found in insulatory products, wall linings, fire-resistant materials and roofing products.
Its use was banned in the UK in 1999. Despite this it is still present in commercial, domestic and industrial properties all over the country. Safeguard Asbestos Services Ltd can identify and provide solutions to asbestos areas.
