MD Environmental Ltd

Private landlords and social housing providers in the UK have clear legal duties when it comes to asbestos management in their rental properties — duties that cannot be overlooked without significant legal and financial risk. Any landlord who owns or manages a property that was built or substantially refurbished before 2000 has a responsibility to ensure that any asbestos-containing materials within that property are identified, assessed and managed safely, particularly where maintenance contractors or tradespeople may encounter those materials in the course of their work. MD Environmental provides professional asbestos survey services for private landlords, portfolio landlords and social housing providers across the UK, delivering the clear, detailed assessment reports that landlords need to understand and manage their asbestos responsibilities. Management surveys for occupied rental properties identify the location and condition of any asbestos-containing materials and provide the risk assessment and management recommendations that form the basis of a compliant asbestos management plan. For void properties undergoing refurbishment, refurbishment surveys ensure that any asbestos that could be disturbed by planned renovation works is identified and safely removed before works commence. MD Environmental also provides asbestos removal and waste management services, allowing landlords to instruct a single trusted contractor to manage the entire asbestos process from survey through to clearance.
