WHY CHOOSE US?
A clear picture of what’s actually present – a thorough risk assessment identifying asbestos-containing materials, their condition, and the level of risk each one poses.
A management plan you can actually follow – practical, written guidance from specialists on what needs monitoring, what can be left alone, and what needs action, without unnecessary jargon.
Ongoing support, not a one-off report – review schedules and re-inspection to keep your records current as the building and its use change over time.
WHY THIS MATTERS
The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 places what’s known as a “Duty to Manage” on anyone responsible for the maintenance of non-domestic premises. This includes landlords, employers, facilities managers, and property owners. It applies regardless of whether you intend to remove any asbestos, because the duty is about knowing what’s there and managing the risk, not necessarily eliminating it immediately. Getting this wrong, or not doing it at all, carries real legal and financial exposure if an incident occurs or an HSE inspection finds gaps in your records. Getting it right is often simpler and cheaper than people expect, and it protects everyone using the building in the meantime.

FAQs
What is the Duty to Manage asbestos?
It’s a legal obligation under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 requiring anyone responsible for maintaining non-domestic premises — landlords, employers, facilities managers — to identify asbestos-containing materials in the building and manage the risk they present, even if no removal is planned.
Does this apply to my business if the building is old but I've never had issues?
Yes, potentially. The duty exists regardless of whether any problem has occurred — it’s about proactively knowing what’s in the building and managing it, not waiting until something goes wrong.
What's the difference between a risk assessment and a survey?
A survey identifies and locates asbestos-containing materials in the building. A risk assessment goes further, evaluating the condition of each material, how likely it is to be disturbed, and what level of risk it poses — which then feeds into the management plan.
How often does an asbestos management plan need reviewing?
There’s no single fixed interval — it depends on the building’s use, the condition of materials found, and any changes to how the space is used. We’ll recommend a review schedule appropriate to your property as part of the assessment.
What happens if asbestos is found during the assessment?
It doesn’t necessarily mean removal is required. If the material is in good condition and unlikely to be disturbed, it’s often recorded and managed in place. Where it does need addressing — because it’s damaged or in the way of planned work — we’ll advise on removal or encapsulation and provide a quote.
What are the consequences of not managing asbestos properly?
Beyond the health risk to anyone using the building, duty holders can face enforcement action, fines, and legal liability if an HSE inspection finds inadequate records or an incident occurs. Proper documentation is also often required for insurance, sale, or lease purposes.
