Asbestos Surveys

The 2006 Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR2006) set out the Duty to Manage Asbestos. This imposes a duty of care upon the duty holder to suitably manage asbestos within non-domestic properties and the communal areas of domestic dwellings, blocks of flats for instance.

In order to deal appropriately with asbestos your property may require an asbestos survey to be carried out, known as a Management Survey (previously known as Type 1 or Type 2 Survey).

The regulations also specify that if carrying out major refurbishment, an asbestos survey should be undertaken prior to these works taking place, this is also supported by the Construction Design Management Regulations 2007 (CDM2007). In this instance it would be necessary to carry out a Refurbishment and Demolition Survey (previously known as a Type 3 Survey).

At Core, we carry out all asbestos surveys in line with HSG264 and ISO17020 guidelines and all our surveyors are P402 qualified as a minimum standard. Our reports include risk assessments and recommendations, which are given to you in an easy to follow digital or hard copy format.

Once you have an asbestos survey you may require a management plan, training or remedial works of some kind. Or alternatively you may already have had a survey carried out and just need some further advice. Whatever the circumstances of your individual case, we’re here to help.

Should you require remedial works…..

Core can fully project manage any remedial / removal works you may require. This process will generally start by going out to 3 of our approved contractors for quotations; in discussion with you, the successful contractor will be selected; the works will be agreed for a date and time convenient to you; site visits will made by Core throughout the duration of the work; the works will only be signed off once you are fully satisfied with every aspect of the work undertaken; you will then be provided with a full completion pack once the works are complete.

If you would like further details, including information on asbestos and the health risks associated to it, just download our free pdf. For any other enquiries, including a free quotation, please contact us on our freephone number.

Asbestos Awareness Training

Introduction

This course is designed to increase the general awareness of asbestos within the working environment.

Our asbestos awareness training is supported by the HSE and is particularly relevant to those who may come into contact with asbestos containing products during their working day.

Topics Covered

  • History and background
  • Types and uses
  • Health effects
  • Examples of many types of asbestos containing materials
  • How to work safely with asbestos containing materials
  • Emergency procedures
  • Legislation / obligations
 

If you are likely to have to work with lower risk, non-licensable asbestos containing materials, then it is important that you know how to do so safely. If this is a requirement then immediately following the general awareness course we can continue to train you in how to follow the Health and Safety Executive’s Approved Codes of Practice for working with non-licensable asbestos containing materials.

PLEASE NOTE: Whilst we can train you in safe methods of working, prior to working with ANY asbestos you must ensure that your relevant insurance covers you for this type of work as many policies will exclude all contact with asbestos.

Call us now. Freephone 0800 2100 510.

We provide certificates of attendance on completion of the course, which can be used as part of your asbestos management file. Courses can be held at clients' premises or a venue with catering options can be supplied (depending on delegate numbers).
