The asbestos reinspection is a relatively simple procedure. We use the previous asbestos management survey as a template for the current work. We check over the existing asbestos materials on the report, and the data in the survey updated for the reinspection report. Finally we record any changes and material damage, along with a new photograph of each asbestos item.

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 set out the Duty to Manage Asbestos in non-domestic properties. If you or your business are responsible for building maintenance and repairs, then you are the “Duty Holder”. Any commercial property built before the year 2000 could contain asbestos, and requires an asbestos register. This should be visible to employees, and others who are working on site. Before a refurbishment project can begin, it’s usual to produce an asbestos R&D survey.
