How long does an asbestos survey take?

Surveys are carried out meticulously, methodically and thoroughly to make sure all ACM’s are identified and all areas of the property are inspected.

The length of time for an asbestos surveys depends on a number of factors including:-

• – The size of the property
• – Number of floors
• – Number and size of any outbuildings
• – Any additional specialist equipment or safety measures required

In most cases CWE can quote on a half day or full day basis. Due to their intrusive nature refurbishment and demolition surveys may take longer to complete than management surveys.

It is important to leave enough time between having your asbestos survey conducted and any planned works to allow for removal of any ACM’s, typically we recommend carrying out a survey at least one month beforehand to avoid any potential disruption and delays!
