Understanding Asbestos Surveys
Asbestos surveys are designed to identify the presence of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) within a property. There are different types of surveys, including management, refurbishment, and demolition surveys, each serving a unique purpose. Management surveys are routine inspections to ensure ACMs are not disturbed, while refurbishment and demolition surveys are more intrusive, conducted before renovation or demolition work.

Legal Requirements
In the UK, the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 mandates that property owners and managers must identify and manage asbestos risks. Non-compliance can result in hefty fines and legal repercussions. Regular asbestos surveys help in maintaining compliance and ensuring the safety of occupants.
Health Risks
Exposure to asbestos fibers can lead to serious health issues, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. By conducting regular asbestos surveys, property owners can identify and mitigate these risks, protecting the health of occupants and workers.
