Refurbishment Asbestos Survey



Need to know the asbestos situation during you refurbishment, upgrading or renovation build project?


A refurbishment asbestos survey (formerly a Type 3 Survey) is required prior to any refurbishment or ‘significant’ works to a property. ‘Significant’ could mean removing walls, doors, windows etc. or installing new equipment.

The refurbishment survey need not necessarily cover the whole property. It is often better to target the survey at the specific works which will be undertaken. Any supporting plans relating to the work should form part of the desk top study (a requirement under HSG264).

Additional requirements (under HSG264) now fall upon the dutyholder and the surveyor. The dutyholder should provide all relevant information relating to the site, plans, previous surveys, hazards etc. The surveyor should plan the survey to reduce the number of inaccessible areas.

If you are unsure whether you require a refurbishment survey prior to commissioning any works to a property you should consult a qualified asbestos surveyor for advice. The surveyor can assess whether the works required go beyond the scope of an existing management survey. If the property requires painting then it is unlikely you would need a more detailed survey. If you are rewiring it is likely you will need a refurbishment survey.
