What Asbestos Survey Do I Need in Caerphilly?

As a property owner or manager in Caerphilly, it's essential to understand the importance of asbestos surveys in ensuring the health and safety of occupants, visitors, and workers. Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) can be present in buildings constructed before 2000, and if disturbed, can release hazardous fibers into the air.

Why Do I Need an Asbestos Survey in Caerphilly?

An asbestos survey is a crucial step in identifying and managing ACMs in your property. The survey will help you:

  1. Comply with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  2. Identify ACMs and assess their condition
  3. Develop a management plan to minimize the risk of asbestos exposure
  4. Ensure a safe working environment for contractors and employees

Types of Asbestos Surveys in Caerphilly

There are two main types of asbestos surveys:

  1. Management Survey: This survey is designed to locate ACMs in a building and assess their condition. It's a standard survey that's suitable for most properties and is usually conducted during normal working hours.
  2. Refurbishment and Demolition Survey: This survey is more intrusive and is required when a property is undergoing renovation, refurbishment, or demolition. It's designed to identify all ACMs in the building, including those that may be hidden or inaccessible.

What Does an Asbestos Survey Involve?

An asbestos survey typically involves:

  1. A visual inspection of the property to identify potential ACMs
  2. Sampling of suspected ACMs for laboratory analysis
  3. Assessment of the condition and extent of ACMs
  4. Development of a management plan to minimize the risk of asbestos exposure
