Why Do Businesses Need an Asbestos Survey?

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

UK Law on Asbestos for Businesses

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.

Where Can Asbestos Be Found in Commercial Properties?

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

Our Asbestos Survey Services for Businesses

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.
