Affordable Asbestos Removal Devon

As a property owner in Devon, it's essential to stay on top of asbestos management to protect yourself, your family, and your employees from the risks associated with asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). One crucial aspect of asbestos management is reviewing your asbestos survey regularly. But how often should you do it?

Your asbestos survey is a vital document that identifies the presence, location, and condition of ACMs in your property. It helps you understand the risks associated with these materials and develop a plan to manage them. However, ACMs can deteriorate over time, and new risks can emerge. Regularly reviewing your asbestos survey ensures that you stay aware of these changes and can take prompt action to mitigate any potential hazards.

The frequency of reviewing your asbestos survey depends on various factors, including the type of property, the condition of the ACMs, and any changes to the building or its use. As a general rule, it's recommended to review your asbestos survey:

• Every 6-12 months for high-risk properties, such as those with damaged or deteriorating ACMs
• Every 1-2 years for medium-risk properties, such as those with ACMs in good condition but with some potential for disturbance
• Every 3-5 years for low-risk properties, such as those with ACMs in good condition and minimal potential for disturbance

Certain events or changes can trigger a review of your asbestos survey, including:

• Any damage or disturbance to ACMs
• Changes to the building's use or occupancy
• Renovations, refurbishments, or demolitions
• New construction or extensions
• Changes to the property's management or ownership
