Why is an asbestos survey important?

Asbestos was widely used in the construction of buildings until 1999 when it was banned in the UK. Any building built before then could contain asbestos. If asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, asbestos fibres are released into the air, which can be harmful if breathed in.

An asbestos survey is important because it:

• Helps to protect the health of those working in or using the building.
• Helps to prevent any future asbestos-related health problems.
• Ensures that asbestos-containing materials are correctly identified, managed and removed where necessary.
• Helps to prevent costly delays or legal action in the future.
