Asbestos Management Assessments

Whether you're a homeowner planning some property development, or the project manager on a large-scale commercial project, we can provide a comprehensive asbestos survey to meet all regulations.

Our experienced team will attend your home or commercial property and carry out the survey using the latest equipment and techniques, they will then provide a full report on their findings and offer professional advice on how to move forward; including information on whether the asbestos-containing materials (ACM) will need removing. 

 Asbestos management surveys are required during the normal occupation and use of a building. This type of survey ensures that any ACMs are being effectively managed and that the materials have not become damaged.

The purposes of an asbestos management survey include:

• Ensuring that nobody can come to harm as a result of the presence of ACMs
• Ensuring that any ACMs that are present are kept in good condition
• Ensuring that, as far as reasonably possible, during normal operation that no-one disturbs any ACMs.

As members of the Asbestos Control and Abatement Division, Bradford Property Surveyors are fully certified to carry out management surveys and refurbishment/demolition surveys. We are a Contractors Health & Safety Assessment Scheme, and Alucmus Safe Contractor accredited company. As well as offering asbestos management services, we can also dispose of your asbestos waste responsibly and in accordance with legislation. 

Bradford Property Surveyors can survey your property to evaluate any potential fire hazards.  The fire assessment will highlight any fire risks in your property and recommendations to make your premises safe; this is compiled into a complete written fire risk assessment report.

This report follows the recommended advice and approach of the PAS 79 document. This is the Publicly Available Specification developed and published by the British Standards Institution (BSI).  Once we have provided you with your fire risk assessment visit and report, our company will offer advice and recommendations for you to follow up.

Also, if you are a landlord, we offer a Fire Risk Assessment for Flats or an Office Fire Safety Assessment.

Do you need a Fire Risk Assessment?

Under current fire safety legislation, all business premises and residential flats (communal areas) require Fire Risk Assessments. A written fire risk assessment is needed if you employ five or more employees.

Fire Risk Assessments are required for all non-domestic properties, including public and commercial premises, such as schools, warehouses, factories, licensed premises, nursing homes, care homes, offices, retail outlets, licensed premises, and businesses that provide sleeping accommodation.

It also applies to sheltered housing and the communal areas of blocks of flats and houses in multiple occupations (HMOs).
