ASBESTOS Surveys

Merit offer competative quotes for various Asbestos Surveys,  each can be  tailored to your requirements, our reports are fully compliant to HSG264 ( Asbestos: The survey guide) 

The types of surveys are;

Management Asbestos Surveys

A management survey is the standard survey. Its purpose is to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, the presence and extent of any suspect Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM's) in the building which could be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy, including foreseeable maintenance and installation, and to assess their condition.

Refurbishment and demolition surveys

A refurbishment and demolition survey is needed before any refurbishment or demolition work is carried out. This type of survey is used to locate and describe, as far as reasonably practicable, all ACMs in the area where the refurbishment work will take place or in the whole building if demolition is planned. The survey will be fully intrusive and involve destructive inspection, as necessary, to gain access to all areas, including those that may be difficult to reach. A refurbishment and demolition survey may also be required in other circumstances, eg when more intrusive maintenance and repair work will be carried out or for plant removal or dismantling.

The report contains advice on how to manage any Asbestos Contraining Mateirals that may be found and advice on removal or encapsulation. As we are independant from removal contractors, you will recieve professional, unbiased advice
