Frequently Asked Questions
Who is responsible for managing asbestos?
The 'duty holder' is responsible for managing asbestos in non-domestic premises. This is typically the building owner, landlord, or the person who has clear responsibility for building maintenance. In residential settings, landlords and property managers have duties regarding communal areas.
How often should asbestos be re-inspected?
The frequency of re-inspections depends on the risk assessment, but typically ranges from 6-12 months for higher-risk materials to 2-3 years for materials in good condition with low disturbance risk. We can recommend appropriate inspection intervals based on your specific circumstances.
Can asbestos be left in place safely?
Yes, asbestos in good condition that is unlikely to be disturbed can often be safely left in place and managed. This approach can be more cost-effective and sometimes safer than removal, as removal activities themselves can create risk if not properly controlled.
What information should be included in an asbestos register?
An asbestos register should include the location, extent, product type, and condition of all identified asbestos-containing materials. It should also contain information on accessibility, surface treatment, and recommended actions. We create comprehensive registers with clear floor plans for easy reference.
