What is an Asbestos Survey and Why Do You Need One in Devon?

If you're a homeowner or business owner in Devon, it's essential to understand the risks associated with asbestos. Asbestos is a group of minerals that were widely used in building materials until the 1990s. Although it's no longer used in new construction, many older buildings still contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). An asbestos survey is a crucial step in identifying and managing these hazardous materials.

The Risks of Asbestos in Your Building

Asbestos can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. When asbestos is disturbed or damaged, it releases tiny fibres into the air, which can be inhaled. If you're planning to renovate, demolish, or refurbish a building in Devon, it's vital to conduct an asbestos survey to identify any ACMs. This will help you avoid accidentally releasing asbestos fibres into the air and putting yourself and others at risk.

What Does an Asbestos Survey Involve?

An asbestos survey is a thorough inspection of your building to identify any ACMs. Our team of experienced asbestos surveyors will examine all areas of the building, including walls, ceilings, floors, and roofs. We'll take samples of any suspected ACMs and send them to a laboratory for analysis. Our survey will provide you with a comprehensive report detailing the location, type, and condition of any ACMs found.

Asbestos Survey Types

We offer two types of asbestos surveys: management surveys and demolition/refurbishment surveys. A management survey is designed to identify ACMs in a building that's in good condition and not scheduled for renovation or demolition. This type of survey is ideal for building owners who want to manage their asbestos risk. A demolition/refurbishment survey is more intrusive and is designed to identify ACMs in a building that's scheduled for renovation or demolition. This type of survey is essential for ensuring the safe removal of ACMs before work begins.

What Happens After the Asbestos Survey?

Once we've completed your asbestos survey, we'll provide you with a comprehensive report detailing our findings. If ACMs are found, we'll recommend the best course of action for managing or removing them. Our team can also provide asbestos removal and disposal services, ensuring that the process is carried out safely and efficiently. We'll work with you to create a plan that meets your needs and budget.
