What is an Asbestos Survey?
An asbestos survey is an essential process for identifying the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in various settings, ranging from residential and commercial properties to more complex environments such as factories, soils, ships, oil rigs, and utility facilities. Asbestos is also in soils and we test for this. The survey determines the location, extent, and condition of ACMs, providing critical insights for their management.
This process includes:
-
Material Identification: Pinpointing ACMs and documenting their type, location, and quantity.
-
Condition Assessment: Evaluating the accessibility, current state, and any prior treatments of the ACMs.
Types of Asbestos Surveys Offered by Clearscan Environmental
Asbestos Management Survey
​This foundational survey is essential for all non-domestic premises, designed to identify ACMs that might be disturbed during regular building operations.
Asbestos Re-Inspection Survey
​This survey is necessary if there’s already an asbestos register or a previous survey in place. It involves periodic checking and updating the condition of any known ACMs.
Pre-Refurbishment Asbestos Survey
​Required before any refurbishment or modernisation activities, this survey is more intrusive, accessing all areas to ensure no ACM is missed.
Pre-Demolition Asbestos Survey
​Conducted before any demolition work, this survey is comprehensive, aiming to locate all ACMs in the structure or area.
​Do I Need an Asbestos Survey?
​In the UK, any building constructed before the year 2000 could potentially contain asbestos. While asbestos can be safely managed, if left undisturbed, it becomes a significant risk once disrupted, releasing fibres into the air. Implementing an asbestos survey is a proactive measure to control the exposure risks and is a critical step for duty holders to ensure compliance and safety.
​Can I Conduct an Asbestos Survey Myself?​
​Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012), asbestos surveys must be performed by professionals with adequate training and knowledge. It is vital to choose a qualified provider like Clearscan Environmental, to ensure thoroughness and reliability in reporting and recommendations.
