Asbestos Management Survey
What is an Asbestos Management Survey?
The purpose of the Asbestos Management Survey is to identify, as far as reasonably practicable, the presence and extent of any suspected asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) within the building. The survey focuses on materials that may be damaged or disturbed during normal occupancy, routine maintenance, or installation activities, and includes an assessment of their condition to support effective management and compliance.

Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) present significant health hazards when disturbed, as airborne fibers can cause serious asbestos-related diseases. An asbestos management survey is therefore essential to identify the presence, condition, and extent of ACMs within a property. This survey ensures safety during normal occupation and prior to any refurbishment or demolition activities. It forms a critical component of a comprehensive asbestos management plan, supporting compliance with statutory requirements and safeguarding health.
Effective asbestos management requires a clear understanding of the different survey types, including management surveys and refurbishment or demolition surveys. Engaging fully qualified and insured asbestos surveying organizations guarantees the accuracy and reliability of testing, inspection, and reporting. These processes underpin asbestos awareness and control strategies, enabling duty holders and stakeholders to make informed decisions regarding asbestos in buildings. All activities should be conducted in accordance with HSG264 guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations.
