Comprehensive Asbestos Surveys and Registers

ENSURING SAFETY WITH PROFESSIONAL ASBESTOS SURVEYS

Asbestos, once a common building material due to its durability and heat resistance, is now known for its serious health risks when its (respirable sized) fibres are inhaled. Proper management and documentation of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are essential for safeguarding the health of occupants and workers in any property.

WHAT IS AN ASBESTOS SURVEY?

An asbestos survey involves identifying and assessing the presence of ACMs in a property. This is critical for managing asbestos risks and ensuring safe environments. Our surveys are conducted following the guidelines of Safe Work Australia, Safe Work NSW, and relevant Australian Standards.

types of asbestos SURVEYS

  • A Management Survey is a standard inspection aimed at identifying ACMs in a property to manage them safely. It involves minor intrusive work and sampling to assess the condition and risk of ACMs during normal occupancy and maintenance activities. This survey helps in creating an Asbestos Register and Management Plan in compliance with the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2017 (NSW).

  • Before any refurbishment work, a Pre-Refurbishment Survey is essential to identify ACMs that could be disturbed during the renovation. This survey is more intrusive and involves a thorough examination of the areas affected by the refurbishment, ensuring safe handling and compliance with Safe Work Australia guidelines.

  • A Pre-Demolition Survey is required before demolishing any structure to ensure all ACMs are identified and safely removed. This highly intrusive survey involves a comprehensive examination of the entire building, ensuring compliance with Australian Standards and the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (NSW).
