Asbestos survey services

If your building was constructed or refurbished before the year 2000 it may contain ACMs (Asbestos Containing Materials). Whilst blue and brown asbestos was banned in 1985, ACMs such as asbestos cement were used up until 1999.

A risk assessment is essential to help you comply with the requirements of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006.

A Competent Person should always carry out your initial asbestos risk assessment. Our professional surveyors trained to MDHS 100 standard can carry out this assessment on your behalf.

Our onsite survey will identify and record the hazards associated with each sample taken and/or inspection and our report comprises a risk assessment and asbestos management strategy.

The objectives of this service are to:

  • Identify the asbestos hazards which have the potential to cause injury or ill health.
  • Identify who is at risk e.g. employees, visitors, contractors.
  • Identify what measures are already in place to reduce the asbestos risk to an acceptable level.
  • Determine what additional precautions need to be taken.
  • Provide a log for any ACMs present in your building.
  • Provide a strategy for the management of any ACMs.

The stages of our service are:

  1. Define the initial scope of the assessment project.
  2. Identify the activities/premises which are to be assessed.
  3. Schedule a surveyor to visit the premises to conduct the assessment (normally Type 2 – sampling survey).
  4. Identify and record the hazards associated with each sample taken and/or inspection.
  5. Provide a full report comprising a risk assessment and asbestos management plan.
  6. Provide UKAS accredited laboratory certification on any samples taken .
