Refurbishment Asbestos Surveys

Refurbishment Asbestos Surveys are required before renovation, alteration or upgrade works are carried out. These surveys identify asbestos-containing materials that may be disturbed during the project, helping ensure legal compliance and safe working practices.

WHAT IS A REFURBISHMENT SURVEY?

A Refurbishment Asbestos Survey is undertaken before any refurbishment, renovation or intrusive maintenance work takes place within a building.
Unlike a Management Survey, a Refurbishment Survey is fully intrusive and may involve opening up walls, ceilings, floor voids and service ducts to identify hidden asbestos-containing materials.
The survey is designed to locate and assess any asbestos that could be disturbed during planned works, helping contractors and building owners comply with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and protect workers from exposure.
