Who are these guides for?

They are written for UK dutyholders, landlords, councils, housing associations, facilities teams and asbestos surveyors who need clear, audit-friendly asbestos management guidance.

Do the guides replace professional advice or surveys?

No. The guides support compliance workflows and good record keeping, but they do not replace professional judgement, asbestos surveys or legal advice.

What topics do the guides cover?

Core topics include what an asbestos register should contain, CAR 2012 duty to manage, review frequency and triggers, evidence packs, and what inspectors typically expect during audits.

Where should evidence be stored for inspections?

Keep surveys, lab results, photos, certificates and review history linked to the relevant building, area or asbestos item so evidence can be retrieved quickly during an inspection.
