ASBESTOS SURVEYS
An Asbestos Survey Report that is compliant with HSG 264, details the location of materials containing Asbestos, the type and condition of the material, the type of Asbestos present and the risk to the occupants of the building. This includes prioritised recommendations for further action and future management of the Asbestos.
Harrington Asbestos Removal provide asbestos surveys, accredited laboratory test analysis and detailed asbestos management plans. Before removal work takes place, a Pre-Refurbishment & Pre-Demolition Asbestos Survey is carried out in compliance with HSG 264, which is the HSE method for determination of hazardous substances, "Surveying, Sampling and Assessment of Asbestos-Containing Materials".
Harrington Asbestos Removal has a team of experienced
Asbestos Surveyors who are able to perform the two main asbestos survey, types being an Asbestos Management Survey and an Asbestos Refurbishment & Demolition Survey. The type of survey most appropriate will be dependant upon client / property requirements.
Our experience covers all building types including offices, factories, domestic housing, hospitals, mines and quarries, civic centres, schools and retail premises. Our Asbestos surveyors are qualified, experienced and specifically insured to carry out asbestos surveys, in full compliance with the Duty to Manage Asbestos, whilst taking into account budget and priorities.
Once the survey has been completed Harrington Asbestos Removal can provide detailed advice and costing for the safe management, removal and disposal of any hazardous Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) once identified. We also reinstate where required, for example, replacing asbestos roofs with insulated panels, asbestos floors with vinyl / carpet flooring, asbestos ceilings with plasterboard and asbestos pipe lagging with foiled backed mineral fibre wool, etc.
The Exposure to Asbestos Regulations places an explicit duty on the employer in occupation to manage the risks from Asbestos in their premises.
