Asbestos Surveys

Asbestos regulations (specifically The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006) place a legal duty to take active steps to identify, manage and monitor asbestos containing materials in any non-domestic property. Part of this legal duty includes carrying out an inspection of the property (ideally by an independent UKAS accredited inspection body). As part of our asbestos services, First Order Red offers a complete range of asbestos surveys, including:

Management Asbestos Surveys

The purpose of the ‘Management Asbestos Survey’ is to locate (as far as reasonably practicable) the presence and extent of any Asbestos Containing Materials in a property which could be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy. The Management Asbestos Survey forms the foundation of the asbestos register and is the basis for the continued management of any identified Asbestos Containing Materials.

Refurbishment and Demolition Surveys

A Refurbishment or Demolition Asbestos Survey will be necessary when the building (or any part of it) is to be upgraded, refurbished or demolished. The purpose of the Refurbishment or Demolition Asbestos Survey is to locate and describe (as far as is reasonably practicable) all Asbestos Containing Materials in the area where the refurbishment or demolition is to take place. These asbestos surveys are fully intrusive and involve destructive inspection, as necessary, to gain access to all areas.

Targeted Project Surveys

By using a combination of Management, Refurbishment and Demolition surveys, we are able to deliver project specific asbestos survey services which limit building intrusion and damage. By being involved in building projects from the planning stage our targeted asbestos project surveys provide all of the essential information that free your designers and project managers to deliver on time and on budget.

First Order Red knows that unless you specialise in asbestos it’s hard to know what the right survey for is you. Our specialist asbestos consultants are happy to advise you on what is the right asbestos solution for you. If you have any questions about asbestos surveys or other asbestos services please just ask the experts.
