Pre Purchase Asbestos Surveys
Buying a Property Built Before 2000?
Asbestos was widely used in buildings and construction products for many decades. While its use was eventually prohibited in the UK, asbestos-containing materials can still be found in properties built or refurbished before 2000. If asbestos-containing materials are present, their condition, location and potential for disturbance should be considered before purchasing a property. Damaged or deteriorating ACMs can release asbestos fibres into the air, while removal, repair and ongoing management can create significant additional costs. A pre-purchase asbestos survey in Milton Keynes can therefore provide valuable information before you proceed with a property transaction. It can help you identify potential asbestos-related liabilities, understand likely future management requirements and make more informed decisions about the property.
What's included?
with a Pre-Purchase Asbestos Survey
A pre-purchase asbestos survey is designed to identify and assess accessible materials within a property that may contain asbestos. Our experienced asbestos surveyors carry out a systematic inspection of accessible areas and building elements, looking for materials that are suspected of containing asbestos. Where appropriate, samples are taken and submitted to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis.
Each identified material is assessed individually, with information recorded on:
- The location of suspected or confirmed asbestos-containing materials
- The type and extent of the material
- The condition of the material
- The results of laboratory analysis
- Recommendations for future management or action
- Areas or materials that could not be accessed during the inspection
