Am I liable for asbestos that is in a property my business manages?
Yes, you could be. The HSE states -
If you’re the landlord, tenant or managing agent of a commercial property you may be responsible for managing asbestos, unless your contract or lease says otherwise.
You need to have a have a plan of action to remove or encapsulate the asbestos (even if the property is derelict or vacant), because failure to do so could lead to -
£20,000 fine
12 months in prison
For the untrained, asbestos can be sometimes difficult to spot. The HSE website has photographs to help highlight what asbestos can look like, however we would always recommend having an asbestos survey carried out by an asbestos removal company like ourselves, to determine if there is asbestos in your property and if so, what type of asbestos, which will then help us complete a plan to get it removed safely.
