Homes & residential blocks
Tyneside flats, terraces, post-war housing, apartments, converted buildings and communal areas require survey scopes matched to occupation, access and planned disturbance.

Development & industrial sites
Ouseburn, riverside, industrial, refurbishment and demolition projects can require connected survey, removal, analytical and asbestos-in-soil support.
From asbestos uncertainty to a controlled outcome
Providing the right information at enquiry stage helps ASM define the correct scope and avoid unnecessary surveys, duplicated work and unexpected project delays.
Send the site details
Provide the postcode, property type, reason for the enquiry and available photographs, plans or existing reports.
Agree the scope
ASM confirms the appropriate service, included areas, access requirements, assumptions and intended outcome.
Complete the work
The appropriate surveying, analytical, consulting or project team undertakes the agreed scope.
Use the evidence
The findings support asbestos management, refurbishment, demolition, removal, tendering or the next controlled stage.
What to send for an accurate written scope
Good information allows the team to identify the correct starting point and reduces assumptions when preparing the quotation.
- Full property or site address
- Building use and approximate size
- Reason for the asbestos enquiry
- Plans, work scope and useful photographs
- Existing surveys, registers or laboratory results
- Access, occupation and isolation restrictions
- Required attendance and reporting dates
Tell us what you manage, what material has been found or what building work is planned.
ASM can then identify whether the correct starting point is an asbestos survey, targeted sampling, asbestos management support, air monitoring, soil consultancy or removal quotation.
