Management Asbestos Surveys in Sheffield
UKAS-accredited inspection for normal occupation and foreseeable maintenance, providing usable asbestos information for registers and ongoing management across Sheffield and South Yorkshire.
If planned works will disturb concealed building fabric, existing information must be checked against the work scope and a suitably intrusive Refurbishment Survey completed where required.
What the Management Survey needs to achieve
The survey should locate and assess relevant ACMs that could be disturbed during normal occupation, routine maintenance and foreseeable activity.
Locate relevant ACMs
Systematically inspect accessible areas within the agreed Management Survey scope.
Identify or presume
Take representative samples where appropriate or record materials as presumed under the agreed strategy.
Assess condition
Record material condition and characteristics relevant to potential fibre release and management.
Support the register
Provide locations, photographs, assessments and limitations suitable for the live asbestos register.
The report feeds an active management system
Register

Management plan
Assign responsibilities, priorities, communication, controls and emergency arrangements.
Reinspection
Monitor ACM condition according to risk, vulnerability and likelihood of disturbance.
Change control
