For anyone with a property built or refurbished before the year 2000 in Sheffield, understanding the presence of asbestos is not just recommended, it is often a legal necessity. Asbestos, a hazardous material, poses serious health risks when disturbed. An asbestos survey is the critical first step in identifying these dangers, allowing for informed decisions regarding management or removal. Property owners in Sheffield have a 'duty to manage' asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012), making a professional survey indispensable for compliance, safety, and protecting health.

For occupied buildings in Sheffield, our asbestos management surveys are the standard. This non-intrusive survey method systematically identifies and assesses accessible asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). Our certified surveyors will meticulously inspect common areas where asbestos might be present, such as textured coatings, floor tiles, and pipe insulation. Following the survey, you receive a detailed asbestos register and a tailored management plan. This equips Sheffield property owners with the knowledge to safely manage any ACMs, fulfilling their legal obligations and maintaining a safe environment.

Planning any renovation, refurbishment, or demolition work on a Sheffield property built before 2000 requires a full refurbishment and demolition (R&D) survey. This intrusive survey delves deep into the fabric of the building, locating all hidden asbestos-containing materials before any work commences. Our expert team in Sheffield will conduct a thorough investigation, including breaking through walls, ceilings, and floors where necessary, to uncover all ACMs that could be disturbed during construction. This proactive approach ensures safe removal of asbestos before work begins, preventing hazardous fibre release and maintaining project compliance.
