Do you need an asbestos refurbishment survey before you start your next project?

An Asbestos Refurbishment Survey, as the name suggests, should be undertaken prior to any refurbishment, intrusive upgrades or major maintenance works.

The purpose of these surveys is to locate the presence and extent of suspect asbestos-containing materials where refurbishment works are planned to take place. This can be specific areas or the whole building.

These surveys are completed in line with your proposed refurbishment scope of works. A key element of getting the right asbestos refurbishment survey is having a detailed and confirmed scope of works for what you are planning for your refurbishment.

These surveys are intrusive and destructive in nature and will cause damage to areas where refurbishment works are planned. These surveys can only be undertaken in unoccupied areas.

This depends on a number of factors. When determining how much an asbestos refurbishment survey costs some factors such as the type of building, the use of the building, the size of the building (square metre/square foot) and the age of the building need to be considered.

The key element to completing an accurate refurbishment survey is to have a detailed scope of works and confirmed proposed plans. Ultimately we need to know exactly what you are planning to do. The more accurate the information you provide, the more accurate and complete the asbestos refurbishment survey can be.

The information you provide will be used to form the extent of the survey. You need to consider not just the physical areas you're planning to refurbish, but also any other areas which will be affected. Electrical upgrades, new services or drainage routes may be required to upgrade your refreshment area. All of these locations will need to be inspected.
