Clear asbestos information before work begins.
Asbestos surveys help clients identify asbestos-containing materials, understand their condition and plan maintenance, refurbishment or demolition work with better information.
D J Hintons is your single point of contact for asbestos surveys, from your initial enquiry through to survey coordination, reporting and the next steps. Our experienced team handles your requirements for property management, refurbishment or demolition and agrees the scope around the building and proposed work.
Management surveys
Support for the ongoing management of asbestos during normal occupation, routine maintenance and foreseeable activity.
Refurbishment / demolition surveys
More intrusive investigation focused on areas affected by refurbishment or demolition activity.
Clear reporting
Survey information presented so clients and contractors can understand the materials identified and plan the next steps.
Removal support
Where asbestos work is required, survey information can be reviewed alongside the proposed scope to plan the appropriate removal or management route.
Why the survey scope matters
A management survey and a refurbishment or demolition survey are designed for different purposes. Before intrusive work starts, the survey needs to cover the areas that will actually be disturbed. Establishing this early can reduce unexpected discoveries and programme disruption later in the project.

Asbestos surveys — common questions
Which type of asbestos survey do I need?
That depends on the purpose. Ongoing occupation and management generally require different information from refurbishment or demolition work, which can require intrusive investigation of the affected areas.
Can you review an existing asbestos survey?
Yes. If you already have a report, send it with the proposed project scope and our team can review the information relevant to your enquiry.
What happens if the survey identifies asbestos that needs removing?
The survey can then be considered alongside the proposed work so the appropriate licensed, non-licensed, encapsulation or management route can be assessed.
