APA has been appointed as the Contract Administrator for the planned asbestos removal works within two separate the loft spaces of this Victorian residential block, located in the heart of Marylebone. An Asbestos Refurbishment & Demolition survey has confirmed the presence of both Chrysotile (White) and Crocidolite (Blue) asbestos. Given the highly regulated nature of working with Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs), APA is closely working with an independent asbestos consultant to ensure all technical and construction-related aspects are managed and delivered. Our assessment included an initial feasibility assessment to determine the most cost effective and safe means of providing contractor access to the loft areas to facilitate the asbestos removal, along with the subsequent specification of the works.
The works are currently progressing through the s.20 process with a view to works commencing on site towards the end of 2025.
