An asbestos survey in Hull is a necessary procedure for all old buildings. You may be wondering why a survey is necessary as you don’t have any plans on renovating or demolishing the building. However, an asbestos survey is still necessary. As some types of asbestos become friable as they age or are disturbed, it is still necessary to know where these materials are and what sort of condition they are in. Even if there are no plans for renovations for your building, there are still minor maintenance repairs that will take place. With an asbestos survey, a management plan can be put in place, providing guidance on how to manage any asbestos-containing materials.
It is also a legal requirement. Thus, in Hull, an asbestos survey is necessary for any building erected before the year 2000. This is because asbestos was used in many different building materials. Today, asbestos can be found in insulation, flooring, ceiling boards, guttering and more. An asbestos survey can identify where the asbestos is, and the condition it is in. Maintenance work to the building could disturb any asbestos. Hence it is essential to have a plan in place.
