Asbestos Management Survey

This is the cornerstone to your asbestos management plan. Its purpose is to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, the presence and extent of any suspect ACM's within a building which could be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy, including foreseeable maintenance and installation, and to assess their condition.

Pre-refurbishment / Demolition Survey

This type of survey aims to find the asbestos behind surfaces which will be affected anyway during repairs, maintenance, alterations or demolition. Typically, the survey criteria involves intrusive, investigative and destructive means. The premise behind this type of survey is that the structure is either being demolished or is being significantly refurbished.

The release of asbestos fibres in the air can be a major concern, whether it is by accident or carelessness. Few workplace events are as alarming. Fortunately, we are well positioned to be able to provide emergency response air testing with on-site analysis. This means minds can be quickly eased or prompt action to close down problems at the earliest opportunity.

Air monitoring is also used during our asbestos removal work to detect leaks from working enclosures and to reassure people living or working nearby that no risks are arising from working practices in operation.

After asbestos has been removed, repaired or environmentally cleaned, we recommend air monitoring in some cases, and it is mandatory in others.

We can therefore offer airborne fibre sampling in conjunction with our removal projects in the following areas:

  • Four-stage clearance monitoring
  • Reassurance monitoring and inspection
  • Background monitoring
  • Personal exposure monitoring
  • Leak (enclosure integrity check) monitoring

Case Studies


Disturbed Material in a Distribution Centre in Coventry

The problem:

The building did not have an asbestos management survey in place and as such were unaware of the presence of asbestos. A forklift truck had accidently knocked an internal partition wall and concerns were raised to the nature of the material.

The solution:

We advised on the telephone to cordon the area of and not to allow access until arrival. One of our experts swiftly arrived on site to inspect the area. The material was quickly identified to be asbestos insulating board and one of our repair teams arrived the same day in order to undertake an environmental clean and repair the damage. A UKAS accredited laboratory was also engaged to perform reassurance air samples to ascertain whether the area was suitable for continued normal occupancy. It was advised that an asbestos management survey should be undertaken which was implemented shortly after the incident.

Pre-Refurbishment Asbestos Survey to Retail Units in Dudley

The problem:

The surveying company's client required that the survey be undertaken whilst the buildings being partially occupied and operational. This meant that a number of areas needed re-instatement and to be surveyed out of hours.

The solution:

Our experienced operative was present to undertake intrusive works, erect mini-enclosures, repair the damaged areas and clean the area, leaving the surveyors to continue with their task in hand.
