Frequently asked

What's the difference between a Management Survey and a Refurbishment & Demolition Survey?+
A Management Survey is non-intrusive and supports ongoing occupation — identifies ACM accessible without breaking finishes. A Refurbishment & Demolition survey is intrusive and identifies all ACM, including in wall cavities, floor voids, and services. R&D is required before any refurbishment or demolition.
Do I need to be a Reg 64 assessor to use this template?+
The template is designed for licensed assessors and competent surveyors. If you are not licensed, commission a survey via our Asbestos Management Survey service.
Does the completed report feed the asbestos register and management plan?+
That is what it is built for. The Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations 2016 treat identification, the register and the management plan as a chain: Regulation 11 requires asbestos and ACM to be identified, Regulation 12 requires a register, and Regulation 13 requires a management plan. The survey report is the evidence base at the front of that chain, and its item schedule is laid out so entries transfer into a register without re-keying.
How do I record a material I cannot sample?+
Presume it. Where access, occupancy or structural constraints prevent sampling, record the item as presumed ACM, state the reason sampling was not possible, and manage it as asbestos until proven otherwise. The template carries a presumption field for exactly this — leaving an item blank because it could not be reached is the failure mode assessors look for.
How often does a management survey need revisiting?+
The survey supports the management plan, and Regulation 14 requires that plan to be reviewed — including when the plan is no longer adequate, when asbestos is removed or disturbed, or on request from a health and safety representative. In practice that means re-inspecting known ACM on a set cycle and re-surveying whenever the building fabric changes. A Management Survey never covers refurbishment or demolition work; commission an intrusive survey for that.
