Asbestos Management Reports
Asbestos Management Reports
Asbestos is a general name given to several natural fibrous minerals that have crystallised and formed fibres. Being resistant to heat and fire made asbestos a popular building material in the past, as such it can still be found in many buildings and properties built prior to 2000.
However, when disturbed or damaged, asbestos fibres can become airborne and, if inhaled, may cause serious and often fatal illnesses.
Legal responsibilities
Property owners and landlords have a duty to identify and manage asbestos within their buildings. An up-to-date Asbestos Management Report is essential for compliance and safety. This is particularly important if these materials could be disturbed during normal occupancy or during agreed maintenance and repairs.
What is an Asbestos Management Survey?
When undertaking the survey we will look at the property in detail to identify the presence and amount of asbestos containing materials (ACMs). Samples of suspected materials are taken and analysed by a UKAS accredited laboratory and all results are included in the report with suitable recommendations.
After the survey
Following our initial inspection, we will recommend asbestos removal if required or remedial works to achieve compliance and safety.
