As a commercial property owner or duty holder in Devon, you have a legal obligation under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 to manage the risk of Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs). Our comprehensive Asbestos Roof Surveys are the crucial first step to ensuring compliance, protecting your business, and safeguarding the health of employees and contractors.

CoreSafe provides certified, non-intrusive surveys designed specifically for industrial, warehouse, and commercial roofing structures. We deliver definitive, actionable reports you can rely on for safe and legally compliant building management.

Our Comprehensive Asbestos Survey Process

We tailor our approach to your property type, focusing on the materials most commonly used in commercial and industrial roofing:

1. Non-Destructive Inspection

Our HSE-licensed surveyors visually inspect all accessible areas of your roof, plant room, and associated structures. We focus on common ACMs like corrugated cement sheets, rainwater goods (gutters/downpipes), fascia, and insulation panels. This inspection determines the location and condition of any suspect materials.

2. Sample Collection and Laboratory Testing

If suspect materials are found, small, non-destructive samples are safely taken and sealed. These samples are then sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for priority analysis. This rigorous testing confirms the presence of asbestos and identifies the specific type (e.g., Chrysotile, Amosite, or Crocidolite).

3. Detailed, Actionable Reporting

You receive a complete Asbestos Survey Report that meets all current UK regulations. This report includes:
  • A clear register of ACMs found.
  • Photographic evidence and location mapping.
  • A calculated material assessment score and priority assessment score to determine the level of risk.
  • Clear recommendations for the next steps: Asbestos Removal, Encapsulation, or management.

Types of Asbestos Surveys We Offer

Selecting the right survey type is vital for legal compliance and project planning. We offer two primary types for commercial roofing clients:

Management Surveys

The standard survey required to manage asbestos during the normal occupation and use of your premises. This survey aims to locate, as far as reasonably practicable, the presence and extent of any suspect ACMs that could be damaged or disturbed during normal day-to-day use, or when undertaking planned maintenance.

Refurbishment/Demolition Surveys (R&D)

Required before any refurbishment or demolition work is carried out. This is a fully intrusive survey that is essential to locate all ACMs within the area of work, ensuring they are safely removed before contractors begin. This survey is mandatory and non-negotiable before any major roof work.

We used CoreSafe to safely remove the asbestos roof from our vehicle detailing workshop near the Sowton industrial estate. Their team was exceptional—fast, highly professional, and they left the site absolutely spotless. The official disposal documentation gave us total peace of mind. Highly recommended for commercial garage owners.

I had an old storage unit in Paignton that needed its asbestos roof replaced before renovation. CoreSafe’s service was excellent; they clearly explained the process, and the removal was completed in less than a day. It was a completely hassle-free process from start to finish.

CoreSafe took all the worry out of dealing with our old delivery garage roof. They are clearly experts—licensed, safe, and efficient. We were particularly impressed with how compliant they were with the waste disposal. The best price and the best service we found in the Newton Abbot area.
