Asbestos is still present in thousands of UK buildings built
before 2000 — and failure to manage it can result in legal
action, illness, and expensive delays.

What is an Asbestos Management Survey?
An Asbestos Management Survey is the standard survey required to manage asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) during the normal occupation and use of a building. It helps identify the location, type, and condition of any asbestos present and assesses the risk to occupants or maintenance workers.
Our team conducts detailed inspections and provides a clear, easy-to-understand report, helping you plan safe, cost-effective management or removal strategies.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is an asbestos survey a legal requirement in the UK?
Yes. Under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, a Duty Holder must identify and manage asbestos in any non-domestic building, and in the communal areas of residential buildings. This includes maintaining an up-to-date asbestos register and management plan for the property.
Who needs an Asbestos Management Survey?
Any non-domestic building, or the communal areas of a residential property, built before the year 2000 may contain asbestos. If you’re a landlord, employer, building owner or managing agent, an Asbestos Management Survey helps you identify any ACMs present, assess their condition, and put a compliant management plan in place.
What happens during an asbestos survey?
A certified asbestos surveyor inspects all accessible areas of the property, collects material samples, photographs findings, assesses the risks and prepares a written report. The report outlines where asbestos was found, its condition, and the recommended management actions to keep occupants safe.
What should I do if asbestos is found on my property?
A Management Survey remains valid as long as the condition of asbestos-containing materials is monitored and recorded regularly. Most duty holders update their asbestos register every 6 to 12 months to stay compliant.
How long is an asbestos survey valid for?
A Management Survey remains valid as long as the condition of asbestos-containing materials is monitored and recorded regularly. Most duty holders update their asbestos register every 6 to 12 months. For a Refurbishment and Demolition Survey, the findings apply only to the specific area and project being undertaken.
