Refurbishment and demolition surveys (R & D Surveys)

Refurbishment and demolition surveys (R & D Surveys)

Refurbishment and demolition surveys will be necessary when the building (or part of it) is to be upgraded, refurbished or demolished and should be carried out before any refurbishment or demolition work commences.

A refurbishment and demolition survey may also be necessary when intrusive maintenance or repair work is required or plant is to be removed or dismantled.

Refurbishment and demolition surveys are intended to locate all the asbestos in the building (or the relevant part), as far as is reasonably practicable.

Refurbishment and demolition surveys are fully intrusive and involve destructive inspection, as necessary. Therefore, they should only be carried out in specific locations where refurbishment or demolition is planned.

A refurbishment and demolition survey to targeted areas of a building can be carried out in conjunction with a management survey.

The refurbishment and demolition survey reports will include full results of all materials sampled or presumed to contain asbestos, a full list and description of all areas inspected, annotated plans and conclusions.
