Understanding the Need for an Asbestos Demolition Survey:
Prior to the demolition of any building constructed before 1999, an Asbestos Demolition Survey is not just recommended, it’s legally mandated. This survey serves as a vital safeguard against the health risks associated with asbestos exposure during demolition activities. The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (Regulation 7) underscores the importance of identifying and managing asbestos-containing materials before undertaking any demolition work.
Tailored Solutions for Every Project:
At Environmental Inspection, we recognise that each demolition project is unique. Our experienced team understands the intricacies of various demolition methods and their potential asbestos risks. We offer a personalised approach to asbestos demolition surveys, adapting our methodologies to suit the specific requirements of your project.
Our Comprehensive Inspection and Testing Process:
Our Asbestos Demolition Survey follows a meticulous and methodical process to ensure accuracy and safety.
Preliminary Assessment:
We initiate the process by thoroughly evaluating project documents and historical records to understand the building’s construction history and potential asbestos risks.
On-Site Survey:
Our experienced team conducts on-site inspections, utilising both visual assessments and intrusive investigations to identify suspect asbestos-containing materials. We meticulously inspect areas that might be covered or hidden, leaving no stone unturned in uncovering potential hazards.
Sample Collection and Analysis:
If we encounter materials suspected to contain asbestos, samples are carefully collected following industry best practices. These samples are then sent to an independent UKAS-accredited laboratory for precise analysis. The integrity of this testing process is essential in determining the presence of asbestos and its potential risk.

Our Asbestos Demolition Survey isn’t just a formality, it’s a crucial step in your project’s timeline.
