FAQ

What is an asbestos survey, and why do I need one?

An asbestos survey is a thorough inspection conducted to identify the presence and condition of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in a property. It's essential to ensure the safety of occupants, comply with legal obligations, and manage or remove asbestos safely.

Are asbestos surveys necessary for all types of properties?

Asbestos surveys are particularly important for properties built before 2000, as they are more likely to contain ACMs. If you're planning renovation or demolition work, an asbestos survey is legally required to prevent exposure to harmful asbestos fibers.

What types of asbestos surveys are available, and how do they differ?

There are mainly two types of asbestos surveys: Management Surveys and Refurbishment/Demolition Surveys. A Management Survey is used to locate ACMs that could be damaged during normal occupancy, while a Refurbishment/Demolition Survey is needed before any construction work to identify all ACMs that may be disturbed.

How long does an asbestos survey take to complete?

The duration of an asbestos survey depends on the size and complexity of the property. A typical residential property may take a few hours to survey, while larger or more complex buildings may take longer. The report is usually delivered within 48 hours after the survey.

Will the asbestos survey report include the results of asbestos testing?

Yes, if samples are taken during the survey, they will be analyzed in a UKAS-accredited laboratory. The results will be included in the asbestos survey report, confirming the presence or absence of asbestos in the sampled materials.

Do asbestos survey reports contain recommendations for action?

Yes, the report will include recommendations on how to manage or remove identified ACMs, based on their condition and risk level. This may involve repair, encapsulation, or removal by licensed asbestos removal contractors.

Can I perform an asbestos survey myself?

No, asbestos surveys should only be carried out by competent and accredited professionals. Handling ACMs without proper training and equipment can be dangerous and is illegal under UK regulations.

How much does an asbestos survey cost?

The cost of an asbestos survey varies depending on the size and complexity of the property. Prices typically start from £195. We provide instant quotes tailored to your specific needs.

What happens if asbestos is found in my property?

If asbestos is found, the survey report will provide guidance on the best course of action. This may include managing the asbestos in place if it's in good condition, or arranging for its safe removal by licensed professionals if it's damaged or will be disturbed.
