What we do
Asbestos Surveys
The first step to managing asbestos on your commercial or residential property is an asbestos survey to discover the extent of the asbestos and how you can safely manage it. We provide professional asbestos surveys for commercial and residential properties across the whole of southern England
Asbestos survey service
Professional asbestos surveys for commercial and domestic properties.
If you are the duty holder (owner or manager) of a property that contains asbestos then you are legally responsible for the safe management of the asbestos and protection of the property’s residents. Failure to do so can result in prosecution.
Solent Environmental have a team of fully qualified and highly skilled asbestos surveyors covering southern England who can quickly, safely and efficiently survey your property. Our surveyors have regular training in the latest processes and follow all HSE guidelines.
Our asbestos surveys will allow you to safely manage your property and if needed we can help you safely manage or remove the asbestos in your property. We’ll provide you with a full report that evidences that you have complied with the requirements to safely monitor and manage your property.
Our asbestos survey process
We will visit your property at an arranged date to carry out your survey. It will be necessary for the property to be empty to follow health and safety regulations, but we will keep our surveys as quick as possible to minimise disruption to you.
We will carry out an extensive survey of the property. It will be necessary to take asbestos samples for testing to see what we are dealing with so the survey will be destructive.
Once the asbestos survey is complete and we have the sample results we will provide you with a comprehensive asbestos survey report. This provides evidence you have taken care to manage your property safely and will help you to decide how to move forward.
Asbestos management surveys
An asbestos management survey is the first step into understanding what risk the asbestos in your property poses. We will carefully inspect the property and provide you with a breakdown of where asbestos is found. On the back of this we can help advise, and carry out any remediation or removal works that may be needed to make the asbestos in your property safe.
Asbestos demolition and refurbishment surveys
If you are planning to demolish or refurbish a property that contains asbestos then you’re required to carry out an asbestos survey first so the work can be carried out safely. We will survey the property where work is going to be carried out and provide you with a detailed breakdown of the asbestos in your property. Due to the more intensive nature of this survey it is more intrusive than a normal management survey.
Asbestos reinspection survey
If you manage a property that contains asbestos then it’s a requirement to regularly check the asbestos to ensure that its condition hasn’t deteriorated or been damaged. If the asbestos has not deteriorated our report will evidence your care in managing the property, and if the survey shows work needs doing the survey will tell you what needs to be done. We can help you with any work that may be required to make your property safe again.
