OUR PHILOSOPHY

Essential Asbestos Surveys Before Renovation or Demolition

Planning significant work on properties in Newark-On-Trent or the wider Newark and Sherwood area? An Asbestos Refurbishment & Demolition (R&D) Survey is not merely good practice; it is a strict legal mandate. Before undertaking any intrusive works, be it a small renovation or a full demolition, the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) requires a thorough investigation for asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). This vital survey protects your workforce, minimises delays, and ensures strict health and safety compliance on site. Asbestos In Homes specialises in delivering comprehensive, fully compliant R&D surveys, giving you complete peace of mind to proceed with your project safely.

Unlike a standard Asbestos Management Survey, an R&D survey is fully intrusive. Its purpose is to locate all ACMs within a building, including those hidden within its fabric, behind walls, under floorboards, or in ceiling voids, which could be disturbed during refurbishment or demolition. Our expert surveyors meticulously inspect every part of the structure, even deconstructing elements where necessary. Samples are then collected and sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for accurate asbestos testing. This detailed approach ensures no hidden asbestos poses a risk once work commences, forming the bedrock of a safe project plan for domestic and commercial clients in Nottinghamshire.

Neglecting a pre-refurbishment or pre-demolition asbestos survey can lead to severe consequences. Unforeseen asbestos discoveries during construction can halt your project, incur significant unplanned costs, and, more critically, expose workers and the public to dangerous asbestos fibres. By commissioning an R&D survey with Asbestos In Homes, you:

  • Meet Legal Obligations: Fulfil your "duty to manage" asbestos before any intrusive work.
  • Safeguard Health: Identify and arrange for safe asbestos removal, preventing potential exposure.
  • Avoid Delays: Pre-empt costly stoppages and keep your project on schedule.
  • Budget Accurately: Understand the full scope of any necessary asbestos removal early.
    This proactive approach is indispensable for any building project within Newark-On-Trent or the surrounding Newark and Sherwood district.
