Am legally required to undertake an asbestos survey in commercial premises? How could surveyors determine what sort of survey require? Do all commercial properties have to be surveyed for asbestos or only those that are deemed to be at higher risk have to use an approved contractor?

Is there any way to determine the presence of asbestos without a professional asbestos survey London? Answers to these questions may help shed light on whether asbestos surveying should be undertaken by a qualified individual.

It is becoming common practice for qualified asbestos surveying companies to undertake this work. This is because it is known that asbestos is dangerous to both humans and animals. The risks can be life threatening and also include cancer.

It is now also required by law that anyone living or working in an area where asbestos is present has to take advice from an asbestos surveying company prior to proceeding with any construction or installation. This advice can also come in the form of a certificate of examination. If you do not have this then it is advisable to hire the services of an accredited asbestos surveying company who can undertake the survey for you.

An asbestos surveying company will typically require two people to carry out the survey. One person will be called the surveyor whilst another will be called the inspector. The inspector will be responsible for determining whether there is any asbestos present and what level the asbestos is at. The surveyor will also check any controls that would be in place in the area in question to make sure that asbestos was not entering or leaving the building.

A qualified asbestos surveying company will be able to give the client an estimate of the cost of the survey. This is essential so that they can negotiate a contract price with the client and ensure that the project is funded in the agreed budget. Some surveyors may also provide a cost estimate on the spot so that the client can allocate funds for the survey immediately. There are many different types of asbestos surveying methods. The surveying company will be able to give the client the option to choose either manual or computer-assisted surveys.

Each method that is used will have its own advantages and disadvantages. For instance, some surveying methods such as visual scanning can detect very small amounts of asbestos at a quick rate. However, it is possible that this detection could be missed if the asbestos is located in an area where it is not easily detected.

Computer assisted scanning requires the use of a special camera that has the ability to identify the exact location of the asbestos within a photograph. However, this type of inspection does not require the use of protective gear such as masking.
