Asbestos Survey Management, Refurbishment & Demolition

Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon provides asbestos surveys for Management, Refurbishment and Demolition purposes. Below is some more information about each individual survey.

Management Survey

The main objective of a Management Survey is to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, the presence and extent of any suspect ACMs in the building. This survey is also known as a standard survey.

The key features of a Management Survey are:

• It is a visual inspection

• It is non-intrusive

• It is intended to locate ACMs that could be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy, including foreseeable maintenance and installation work

• A management survey would typically include:

• An assessment of the building structure, including materials used for construction

• Sampling and analysing suspected ACMs

• Preparing a management plan that includes details of all identified ACMs and recommendations for their continued management

Refurbishment / Demolition Survey

This survey is the required standard when a building is to be refurbished, or is to be demolished.

A Refurbishment / Demolition Survey is fully intrusive and always necessary when the building or part of it is to be upgraded, refurbished, altered or demolished. The survey is used to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, all suspect ACMs in the area where the refurbishment work will take place or in the whole building if demolition is planned. This survey is also known as a demolition survey.

The key features of a Refurbishment / Demolition Survey are:

• A full Access All Areas survey

• It is intrusive and destructive

• It will involve asbestos opening up works

• All ACMs must be found before any refurbishment work starts or the building is demolished

• Analysis of samples is necessary to confirm whether asbestos is present

• A refurbishment / demolition survey would typically include:

• A comprehensive survey report detailing specific actions to be taken

• A plan defining the areas sampled

• Documentation and photographs of survey findings and sample locations

• Final clearance documentation required prior to building works commencing
