Asbestos surveys
Residential, commercial and public
Should you suspect your home or commercial premises may contain ACMs (Asbestos Containing Materials), an Asbestos Survey will enable you to determine what type of asbestos (if any) is present in your building.

Our skilled team have over 18 years’ experience in Asbestos Surveys in Kent, London and the South East.

Two types of survey
Which do you need?
Two types of survey
One to manage asbestos in a building. One before refurbishment or demolition begins.
Occupied buildings
Management survey
- Finds out whether asbestos is present
- Samples analysed by a UKAS laboratory
- Report on the type, condition and location of any ACMs
- The basis for a plan to manage it
Asbestos Management Surveys enable us to understand whether there is asbestos present in a building. Post-survey our client is issued with a report, which details the type, condition and location of any ACMs in their property.
To complete this analysis, samples of suspect materials will be taken and sent to an officially recognised UKAS (UK’s National Accreditation Body) laboratory.
This enables SPS Environmental to formulate a plan focused on the ongoing management of any Asbestos Containing Material.
Before building work
Refurbishment and demolition surveys
- Needed before refurbishment or demolition starts
- Far more intrusive than a management survey
- Ceilings, walls, wall cavities and pipe insulation tested
- Purpose-built tools, such as endoscopic cameras
Asbestos refurbishment and demolition surveys are by their very nature far more intrusive than a standard management survey.
Before any scheduled demolition or refurbishment work starts, it is an employer’s or contractor’s duty of care to ensure all Asbestos Containing Materials are located. This is to ensure any person involved in the project is not exposed to asbestos, therefore minimising risks.
The types of materials tested will include ceilings, walls, wall cavities and pipe insulation. As a business we possess the relevant purpose-built tools to conduct in-depth survey reports, such as endoscopic cameras.
