Types of Asbestos Survey
Pre-Purchase Asbestos Survey
If you’re thinking of purchasing a property built before 2000, there’s a possibility that it may contain asbestos. This isn’t necessarily a problem, but without proper management asbestos can be dangerous to your health and a drain on your finances. We would always recommend a pre-purchase asbestos survey for peace of mind.
The purpose of a pre-purchase asbestos survey is to locate and identify any asbestos containing materials (ACMs) that might be disturbed in the day-to-day use of the property. All ACM locations are recorded and samples are sent to the lab for analysis. The asbestos survey report is generated detailing the location, extent and condition of any ACMs along with our recommendations. You will receive your survey report by email, typically within two working days of the survey completion.
Asbestos Management Survey
An asbestos management survey determines the presence, extent and condition of any Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM’s) that could be disturbed or damaged during the normal occupation of a building, including any maintenance activities.
Your asbestos consultant will visually assess the building and take samples of any materials that have the potential to contain asbestos. The samples will then be analysed and the results presented in an asbestos survey report within two working days of survey completion.
Asbestos Refurbishment & Demolition Survey
Before any refurbishment or demolition work is carried out on buildings constructed before 2000, an asbestos refurbishment and demolition survey is required. Failure to carry out this work could result in the hazardous dispersal of asbestos fibres into the environment.
This type of survey will include both visual and intrusive inspection in order to access all areas of the site scheduled for demolition or refurbishment. In this instance, it’s critical to ascertain whether there are any asbestos containing materials (ACMs) on the site.
Asbestos Sampling Survey
If you have a specific material that you suspect could contain asbestos, we can carry out an asbestos sampling survey. This is a cost effective service for homeowners who are concerned about the fabric of their property. We also regularly sample for property developers in need of urgent analysis of a suspect material uncovered during a refurbishment or demolition project.
Asbestos sampling is a simple process. Give us a call and we’ll arrange a prompt visit to collect a sample of the material. The lab analysis results are then delivered to you by email within two working days.
