Management Surveys

This asbestos survey will help you locate then subsequently manage any Asbestos Containing Materials or ACMs during the normal occupation and use of premises.  The aims of the report is to ensure that:

1. Nobody is harmed by the continuing presence of ACMs in your premises
2. That the ACMs remain in good condition (so are not releasing fibres into the air)
3. That nobody disturbs the ACMs accidentally

This doesn’t require  you to close your premises and generally only creates minor disturbance when any samples are taken. Any duty holder of any business premises MUST take reasonable steps to locate asbestos and this report demonstrates that you have done that.  In addition the duty holder should implement any recommendations which are listed in this Asbestos Survey.

Refurbishment/Demolition Survey

The Refurbishment/Demolition Survey is required where the premises, or part of it, need to be upgraded, refurbished or demolished.  The Survey must locate and identify all ACMs before any structural or instrusive work begins at a stated location or on stated equipment at the premises. Where necessary in order to identify any the sort of asbestos present in the affected area this may involve destructive inspection and asbestos disturbance.  In this case the area surveyed must be vacated, and certified ‘fit for reoccupation’ after the survey. A Refurbishment/Demolition Survey aims to ensure that nobody will be harmed by work on ACMs in the premises or equipment and any asbestos remediation work will be done by the right contractor in the right way. All samples taken by ASAP Comply during surveys are analysed by an independent laboratory accredited to ISO/IEC 17025.
