An asbestos management survey is required for anyone responsible for non-domestic premises built before 2000. Under UK regulations, duty holders must identify and manage asbestos-containing materials to ensure occupant safety and legal compliance.

You will typically need an asbestos management survey if you are:

  • A landlord of commercial or mixed-use properties

  • A commercial property owner (offices, warehouses, retail units)

  • A facilities manager responsible for building maintenance

  • An employer operating from business premises

  • A property management company overseeing multiple sites

  • A public sector organisation (schools, hospitals, local authorities)

If your building is occupied and no major refurbishment or demolition work is planned, an asbestos management survey is the correct and legally relevant survey type.

👉 If you’re unsure, most properties in Essex built before 2000 will require an asbestos management survey to remain compliant.

  • The building is occupied and in normal use

  • No major refurbishment or demolition is planned

  • You need to meet legal compliance requirements

  • You want to create or update an asbestos register

👉 If you’re unsure which survey you need, starting with a management survey is usually the correct approach.

At Walther Group, we provide professional asbestos management surveys across The UK, helping you stay compliant and manage asbestos safely.

Our qualified surveyors carry out a thorough, non-intrusive inspection of your property, identifying potential asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). Where required, we undertake safe asbestos sampling and arrange laboratory analysis to confirm results.

We assess the condition and risk of any identified materials and produce a clear, compliant report, including an asbestos register, risk ratings, and practical recommendations.

From initial inspection to final report, we deliver a straightforward, reliable service designed to keep your property safe and fully compliant with UK regulations.

I contacted this company for some information about a garage. The response was very quick and very helpful. I was offered a sample test the next day and I should get the results soon. I have also received a quote for the removal of the garage. So organised. I'm happy to use this company.

Gavin and David handled the removal of asbestos from my property. They were both very professional, courteous, there was a quick turnaround and the pricing was very reasonable for the work that was done - I would highly recommend their services to anyone in the Essex area or further a field. Thank you both for your excellent service 👍
