Any non-domestic property built before 2000 may contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). If disturbed, asbestos can release dangerous fibers that lead to severe health conditions, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.
As a business owner, landlord, or property manager, you have a legal duty to manage asbestos risks under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. A professional asbestos survey helps you:
✅ Identify asbestos risks in your building
✅ Meet legal obligations to protect employees and visitors
✅ Avoid fines and legal action for non-compliance
✅ Plan safe renovations or demolitions
The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
UK law requires all commercial property owners and managers to identify and manage asbestos risks. The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 states that duty holders must:
Conduct an asbestos survey to assess risks
Create and maintain an asbestos management plan
Provide asbestos awareness training for employees if required
Ensure safe handling and regular re-inspections of asbestos-containing materials
Failing to comply can result in fines, legal penalties, and increased risks to health.
Asbestos was widely used in commercial buildings for fire resistance, insulation, and durability. It can often be found in:
Roofing materials (cement sheets, insulation boards)
Ceiling and floor tiles
Insulation on pipes and boilers
Partition walls and panels
Textured coatings (e.g., Artex ceilings)
Fire doors and lagging materials
Guttering, downpipes, and cladding
Electrical switchgear and fuse boxes
We offer specialist asbestos surveys tailored to different business needs:
1. Asbestos Management Surveys
Required for all non-domestic properties to locate and assess asbestos-containing materials. This survey ensures compliance and helps manage asbestos safely over time.
2. Refurbishment & Demolition Surveys
Mandatory before any renovation, refurbishment, or demolition work. This survey identifies hidden asbestos so it can be safely removed before construction begins.
3. Re-Inspection Surveys
If your property already has an asbestos management plan, we provide re-inspection surveys to monitor any changes and ensure ongoing compliance.
Here are some common questions people in Newark ask about Asbestos Commercial Surveys
Yes. The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 requires all commercial property owners to assess and manage asbestos risks.
If asbestos is present, a re-inspection survey should be carried out at least once a year to ensure the material remains undisturbed and safe.
The cost depends on the size of the property, type of survey, and number of samples needed. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote..
