Are there different types of asbestos surveys?
Yes, there are two main types of asbestos surveys:
- Management Asbestos Survey – Conducted for routine monitoring of buildings where asbestos may be present. This survey helps create an asbestos register and an asbestos management plan to ensure the safe handling of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs).
- Refurbishment or Demolition Asbestos Survey – Required before any renovation or demolition work. This survey identifies and locates ACMs to prevent accidental disturbance during structural work, ensuring safe removal or management.
