Why Do You Need an Asbestos Survey?

Asbestos was widely used in construction materials until it was banned in 1999. It’s not something you can easily spot—it doesn’t have an obvious look or smell, which is why a professional survey is essential. If asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are disturbed, they release tiny fibres into the air, which can be dangerous when inhaled. That’s why an asbestos survey is key. Whether you’re a homeowner or managing a commercial property, knowing if asbestos is present helps you stay compliant with health and safety laws and protects everyone who enters your building.

Our Asbestos Survey Services

At Asbestos Gone, we offer two main types of asbestos surveys depending on your situation:

Management Asbestos Surveys: If you need to identify any asbestos that could be present during regular use or minor maintenance, this is the survey for you. It’s designed to make sure any ACMs are managed safely.

Refurbishment & Demolition Asbestos Surveys: Planning some major work on your property? We’ll conduct a detailed survey to locate asbestos before any construction begins, preventing asbestos fibres from becoming airborne during the project.

Both types of surveys are conducted by our licensed professionals, and we make sure the process is smooth and minimally disruptive. After the survey, we’ll provide you with a detailed report, including the location and condition of any ACMs, and our recommendations for managing or removing them safely.
