Services
Asbestos Surveys
We conduct asbestos management and demolition/refurbishment surveys to identify ACMs in commercial and residential properties. Our HSG264-compliant assessments include asbestos registers, material analysis, and management recommendations. Surveys help property owners meet CAR 2012 legal requirements while avoiding unnecessary removal costs.
Fire Risk Assessments
Our fire risk assessments evaluate compliance with Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. We identify hazards, recommend safety improvements, and produce detailed reports to protect occupants. Services include emergency lighting checks, escape route evaluations, and fire equipment verification for commercial premises.
DDA Assessments
We assess premises for compliance with Equality Act 2010 accessibility requirements. Our evaluations identify barriers for disabled visitors and recommend cost-effective solutions. Assessments cover physical access, visual contrast, hearing assistance, and emergency evacuation procedures for service providers.
Asbestos Management
We create asbestos management plans to safely maintain ACMs in situ. Our services include material monitoring, condition assessments, and risk control measures. We help property owners comply with CAR 2012 duty-to-manage requirements while minimising disruption and costs.
Demolition Surveys
Our Type 3 asbestos surveys identify ACMs before demolition or major refurbishment. We conduct intrusive inspections to locate hidden materials, ensuring safe removal prior to works. Surveys meet HSG264 standards and prevent unexpected ACM discoveries during construction.
