Type 3 Survey

Gullands Solicitors

As a large practise in Maidstone, Kent, Gullands Solicitors manage the sale of many commercial properties and became aware of the need to consider their own premises. Instructing PVsurveys to perform the initial surveys and to help prepare the management plan was the first part of the programme.

On completion of the surveys it was established that ACM’s were present, including some that it was agreed should be removed, to ensure staff and client safety. As with many customers, deciding on the appropriate course of action required was not readily understood and therefore Gullands decided to employ PVsurveys to gain contractor quotes and manage the removal of these items.

All reports and management plans are now in place, prepared on the Presumed Asbestos software system and ready for annual re-inspections.

GAME

GAME operates over 400 stores across the UK and Ireland selling the latest computer games.

The company operate a policy of frequent new acquisition and refurbishment of stores, both of which require type 3 surveys.

“The Game contract has proved to be very demanding “ says Dennis Adams, PVsurveys Lead Surveyor . “The Shops have to be closed for the least possible time and nothing can be started until our asbestos survey is finished”.

This contract takes our team all over the country and Dennis was particularly pleased to do the survey in Douglas, Isle of Man, as it was his first opportunity to visit the Island.

"From initial contact through to final completion on site, PVsurveys have demonstrated a professional and effective service. I would have no hesitation in using them again."

Croydon College

PVsurveys have been working with Croydon College for a number of years, having initially been invited to carry out a full Type 2 Survey of the campus site in College Road, Croydon.  The initial survey was carried out over several weekends due to the busy activities in the college and upon completion our reports were uploaded to our software system and installed at the college.

Working closely with the college Health & Safety team and the maintenance departments, the software has become an integral part of their process to ensure awareness and safety when working in areas known to have Asbestos components.

More recently, the college has started an ambitious expansion program and specific Type 3 intrusive surveys were required prior to works commencing. On each occasion the surveys were completed and uploaded to the software system to ensure compliance with all areas of the legislation and building control requirements. Where components needed to be removed, PVsurveys acted as consultants to the college.  Using our intimate knowledge of the college we were responsible for issuing and collating quotations from a number of contractors, managing dates, access and terms of the projects with a final report handed to the college upon completion.

Annual re-inspections have been completed and noted in the software, providing a full and current register - an integral part of the general Asbestos Management Plan.

Wilmott Dixon

Wilmott Dixon are a large firm of Civil Engineers with building projects thoughout the country.

Thelma Golding is an old Hospital site in Hounslow and Wilmott have the contract to demolish and rebuild on a rolling basis. This means a busy site with Portacabins providing temporary accommodation side by side with new building work..

PVsurveys were commissioned to undertake type 3 surveys in between the emptying of the buildings and demolition and were called upon to undertake diplomatic duties tactfully re-directing lost patients and even staff away from building areas.
