Asbestos Survey for the New Property
As we know asbestos is a
silent killer an asbestos survey will allow you to find out whether asbestos is
present or not. It helps to know how much of asbestos is present and where it
is located. The survey provides you with information about the condition of the
asbestos and if it poses a threat. The main purpose of conducting an asbestos
survey is to understand the extent of it and prevent people from being exposed.
The danger is kept at bay and ensures that there is no further deterioration by
keeping regular checks on it.
An asbestos survey is
important before you carry out any refurbishment or demolition work. This
survey helps to locate and describe all asbestos-containing materials in the
area where refurbishment or demolition work is going on. The survey demands
intrusive and destructive inspection, as necessary, to gain access to all
areas. Where the asbestos is identified and needed to be demolished, you can
supply a survey report to abatement contractors who are carrying out the work, so that
the risks of asbestos can be addressed.
Asbestos surveys are
intended to locate all the asbestos in the building as far as reasonably practicable.
This survey is very disruptive and fully intrusive. It may demand to penetrate
all parts of the building structure. Aggressive inspection techniques may be
adopted to break through walls, ceilings, and partitions, etc. In these
situations, to prevent the spread of debris, which may include asbestos,
controls should be put in place.
