Do I need an asbestos clearance certificate for NLW works in domestic premises?
Example: Garage Roof at Domestic Property / Asbestos Cement Roof in Good Condition
Follow HSE document 'Introduction to Asbestos Essentials'
This work would be classed as non-licensed.
Please see the below extract from the Approved Code of Practice, L143:
466 Clearance air monitoring is not required as part of the clearance procedures and an independently provided certificate for reoccupation is not needed. The occupier should be provided with a written statement stating that the area has been thoroughly cleaned and visually inspected to make sure that no visible traces of dust and debris remain and the area is suitable for reoccupation.
467 The statement should include:
- the dates of the work;
- a brief description of the work;
- the name and address of the contractor;
- details of the specific areas and items visually checked;
- the name and signature of the person completing the inspection.
As this is non-licensed work and a domestic property, no certificate of reoccupation is required. However, a written statement should be provided as outlined above.
