Asbestos surveys are essential in managing asbestos in buildings. They should be conducted by licensed asbestos surveyors who have the necessary skills and knowledge to identify asbestos-containing materials and assess the level of risk they pose.

There are two types of asbestos surveys:

1. Management survey: This is a non-destructive survey that aims to identify the presence and condition of asbestos materials in a building. It involves taking samples of suspected materials, which are then analyzed in a laboratory to determine the asbestos content.

2. Refurbishment/demolition survey: This is a more invasive survey that is required before any refurbishment, demolition, or major works that may disturb asbestos materials. It involves taking samples of all suspected materials, including those hidden within the building structure. This type of survey is essential to ensure that all asbestos materials are identified and safely removed before any works take place.
