Commercial Property & Facilities
Asbestos surveys, management and removal for commercial property, facilities teams, landlords and managing agents, from one-off maintenance issues to multi-site refurbishment programmes.
What We Do
HB Insulations supports property owners, facilities managers, managing agents, landlords and businesses with asbestos requirements across commercial properties and managed estates.
Asbestos remains present in many UK commercial buildings constructed or refurbished before 2000, including offices, shops, warehouses, workshops, industrial units and mixed-use properties.
For those responsible for non-domestic premises, managing asbestos is an ongoing responsibility. Accurate information needs to be available about asbestos-containing materials, their condition and the controls required before maintenance or building work takes place.
HB can provide practical asbestos support throughout the property lifecycle. This can include asbestos surveys and sampling, management advice, planned removal programmes, encapsulation, licensed and non-licensed asbestos removal, emergency response and waste disposal.
Support for individual properties and managed estates
For a facilities manager, the requirement may be relatively small: a suspect material found before maintenance, asbestos requiring removal from a plant room or a survey ahead of an office refurbishment.
For larger property owners and managing agents, HB can also support multiple buildings, planned programmes and more substantial refurbishment or redevelopment projects.
Working Around Occupied Commercial Buildings
Where a property remains occupied, our approach considers how the work can be safely separated from employees, tenants, customers and other building users. Access, working areas, programme, communication and handover arrangements are considered as part of the planning process.
-
Prevent Unexpected Discoveries
Where refurbishment is planned, identifying asbestos before intrusive work begins can help prevent unexpected discoveries and project delays.
-
Licensed and Non-Licensed Work
If asbestos removal is required, HB can undertake both licensed and non-licensed work, manage the associated asbestos waste and coordinate independent clearance where applicable.
-
Support
The result is a specialist asbestos contractor capable of supporting everything from one commercial unit to a complex managed estate or major property project.
