The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) places a clear legal duty on anyone responsible for non-domestic premises, or indeed any property undergoing significant structural work. Before disturbing the fabric of a building, you must establish the presence, type, and condition of all asbestos. Unlike a standard management survey, an R&D survey is intentionally destructive. It's designed to uncover hidden asbestos within the structure – behind walls, under floors, or within ceiling voids – ensuring no unpleasant surprises during your project. Neglecting this crucial survey can lead to significant delays, costly remedial work, and severe health risks, alongside potential legal penalties.

When our expert surveyors conduct an R&D survey in Immingham, we meticulously examine every accessible and inaccessible area of the property. This involves careful, controlled deconstruction of specific elements to reveal potential ACMs that would otherwise remain hidden. Each suspect material identified is safely sampled and sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for precise analysis. Upon completion, you will receive a comprehensive, easy-to-understand report detailing all identified ACMs, their location, type, and recommended actions. This robust report forms the cornerstone of your project's asbestos management plan, enabling safe planning for either removal or encapsulation before any main works begin.
