Re-Inspection Asbestos Survey

Asbestos Re-Inspection Surveys

OJ Health and Safety provide HSG 264 Compliant Asbestos Re-Inspection Surveys. OJ H&S can carry out a Re-Inspection Asbestos Surveys at any previously surveyed property and update the information, whether held electronically or as a hard copy.

We will discuss your requirements and identify the frequency of visits and checks. Where necessary, we can handle discussions with the HSE on your behalf.

The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 requires that the condition of asbestos-based products needs to be inspected regularly, and records updated accordingly. The frequency of the asbestos inspection regime must not exceed 12 months.

OJ H&S Re-Inspection Asbestos Surveys are designed to allow the competent person, of the building in question, to monitor and record the condition of any previously identified asbestos products found within a building.

What is Asbestos?

Before its dangers were known, asbestos was often used in buildings for insulation, flooring, roofing, and was sprayed on ceilings and walls. Its use is now banned in the UK, but buildings constructed before the year 2000 may still have dangerous levels of asbestos in them. Read more on the dangers of Asbestos on the British Lung Foundation website, here.

What will OJ Health and Safety do?

Over time, asbestos-based products can degenerate or be accidentally damaged thereby causing the risks associated with the material to change substantially. Additionally, the approved code of practice requires the Asbestos Management Plan to be reviewed every six months. We can advise on or supply efficient methods for complying with this requirement.

The new and updated asbestos survey report itself will include new photographs of those materials together, along with a new recommendation on how to safely manage those materials.

This service can be offered over any period including a one, three, five, or ten-year period. The longer-term options provide cost certainty and compliant information that protects your investment from the initial survey.

Asbestos In Buildings

  • Asbestos only becomes a problem once it’s disturbed and the fibres become airborne.
  • Any building built prior to the year 2000 can contain asbestos.
  • Non-domestic buildings must have an asbestos survey report and register.
  • If you own or are responsible for a commercial building and you fail to manage the asbestos correctly, you could be prosecuted or imprisoned.

What if Asbestos is found?

OJ H&S Asbestos Re-Inspection Surveys will include a risk assessment of the condition of any Asbestos Containing Materials found and their ability to release fibres into the air if they are disturbed in some way. This will give you a good initial guide to the priority for managing Asbestos Containing Materials, as it will identify the materials that will most readily release airborne fibres when disturbed.

What are my responsibilities?

If you are the duty holder, you are required to manage your asbestos risks in line with the Control of Asbestos Regulation (CAR) 2012. Effectively managing your asbestos risks is imperative to protecting your building occupants, environment, and organisation from the risks of asbestos.

OJ H&S expert health and safety consultants can help you manage your asbestos risks by providing Asbestos Management Surveys, Refurbishment Asbestos Surveys, Demolition Asbestos Surveys, and Re-Inspection Asbestos Surveys.
