Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – Asbestos & Hazardous Materials Surveys
Q: Do I need an asbestos register for my property?
You are legally required to have an asbestos register if:
Your building was constructed before 31 December 2003, and
It is used as a workplace (e.g. commercial, industrial, or government property)
This is required under the NSW Work Health and Safety Regulation 2017. The register must be accessible to workers, contractors, and tradespeople and kept up to date.
Q: What is included in an asbestos register?
A compliant asbestos register includes:
The location, type, and condition of all identified or assumed asbestos-containing materials (ACMs)
Photographs
Risk ratings and recommended actions (e.g. removal, encapsulation, monitoring)
Records of any testing or analysis conducted
Optionally, an Asbestos Management Plan (AMP)
It must be reviewed every 5 years or sooner if the condition of ACMs changes.
Q: What is a hazardous materials (HAZMAT) survey?
A HAZMAT survey identifies hazardous building materials beyond asbestos. This can include:
Lead-based paint
Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs)
Synthetic Mineral Fibres (SMF)
Ozone-depleting substances (e.g. refrigerants)
These materials can pose health, environmental, or legal risks during demolition, renovation, or occupation — especially in older or government buildings.
Q: What’s the difference between a management survey and a demolition survey?
A management survey is non-intrusive and used to identify asbestos for WHS compliance during normal occupancy and maintenance.
A refurbishment or demolition survey is intrusive, targeting areas that will be disturbed during works and is mandatory before any structural renovation or demolition.
We provide both — and tailor the scope to your project and regulatory needs.
Q: Who can conduct an asbestos or HAZMAT survey in NSW?
Only competent persons — such as licensed asbestos assessors or experienced environmental consultants — should conduct these surveys. Confluence Environmental provides surveys that:
Comply with SafeWork NSW and the Code of Practice
Are accepted by councils, builders, certifiers, and WHS officers
Include NATA-accredited lab analysis where sampling is required
Q: How often do asbestos registers need to be updated?
Asbestos registers must be reviewed and updated at least every 5 years, or sooner if:
ACMs are removed, disturbed, or repaired
There is a change in building use
A contractor or worker reports deterioration or risk
We offer reinspection and annual update services to maintain compliance.
