FAQs

To help you better understand the process and importance of demolition surveys, we’ve answered some common questions our clients in Wiltshire often have. Explore the FAQs below for more insights.

When is a demolition survey required?

A demolition survey is required before any structure, whether residential, commercial, or industrial, undergoes full or partial demolition. The purpose of the survey is to identify any hazardous materials, such as asbestos, that may be present in the building. This is a crucial step to ensure the safety of everyone involved in the demolition process, as well as to comply with legal regulations. 

Without a proper demolition survey, undetected hazards could lead to significant health risks, legal liabilities, and potential delays in the project. It is particularly important for older buildings, where asbestos and other dangerous materials may have been used extensively in construction. 

The survey must be conducted well in advance of any demolition work, as it may reveal the need for additional steps, such as hazardous material removal, before proceeding. This ensures a safe, controlled demolition process, protecting both workers and the surrounding environment.

How long does a demolition survey typically take?

The duration of a demolition survey can vary depending on several factors, including the size and complexity of the building, the materials used in its construction, and the specific requirements of the project.

For smaller, straightforward structures, a demolition survey may be completed within a few hours, while larger or more complex buildings could require one or more days to thoroughly assess. The process involves a comprehensive inspection of the property, including all accessible and non-accessible areas, to identify any hazardous materials, such as asbestos, that need to be managed before demolition.

Once the physical survey is completed, the results must be carefully analysed and compiled into a detailed report. This report typically takes additional time to prepare, as it includes all findings and recommendations for safe demolition practices. It’s important to account for this time in the overall project timeline to avoid delays.

Can demolition surveys be conducted on both residential and commercial properties?

Yes, demolition surveys are essential for both residential and commercial properties, regardless of the size or type of building. Whether you are planning to demolish a small home, a large office building, or an industrial facility, a demolition survey is necessary to identify and manage any hazardous materials, such as asbestos, that may be present.

The survey process is similar for both types of properties, involving a thorough inspection to ensure that all potential risks are identified before demolition begins. For commercial properties, the survey may also need to account for additional factors, such as the presence of more complex building systems or a larger area to cover.

Regardless of the property type, the primary goal of the survey is to ensure a safe and compliant demolition process. This includes protecting the health of workers and the public, as well as preventing any environmental contamination.
