Commercial / Industrial

If you are responsible for the maintenance of your workplace, you are legally bound by Regulation 4 of The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006 to have an asbestos management plan for the areas for which you are responsible. The management plan will comprise the results of an asbestos survey along with details of how you plan to manage the asbestos within your areas of responsibility.

The primary purpose of the asbestos management plan is to protect tradesmen from being exposed to asbestos fibres during the course of maintenance works.

However, the management plan also serves another purpose - it provides yours employees with valuable information to ensure that they do not inadvertently disturb asbestos materials during their day-to-day work. Providing your employees with such information illustrates that you, as an employer, take health and safety issues seriously.

Please see our survey types for more information or feel free to contact us to discuss your requirements.

Selling a Property?

If your Home Information Pack (HIP) has highlighted possible asbestos materials as a barrier to a sale, call us immediately for expert, impartial advice. It may not be as big a problem as some surveyors would have you believe.

Buying a Property?

Similarly, if the property you have set your heart on is found to contain asbestos materials, such as in its Home Information Pack (HIP), contact DJ Surveying for an impartial assessment. Asbestos neednt mean a costly removal exercise.

Residential Landlords

The 'Duty to Manage' asbestos applies to landlords of residential accommodation in specific instances.

If you let property to more than one party, and the property includes shared or common areas, you have a duty under Regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2006 to ensure that any asbestos present is managed in accordance with the Regulations.
