Asbestos Surveys for Dignity Funerals

Alverprise Limited has been a supplier to Dignity Funerals Limited now for some 5 years. The client provides funeral, cremation and burial services around the UK from Penzance in Cornwall to Inverness in Scotland, and over 1000 sites in between! Alverprise have assisted Dignity in providing asbestos surveys (normally asbestos management surveys and asbestos refurbishment surveys where required, however on occasion asbestos demolition surveys have been necessary) to over 330 sites so far, with additional asbestos consultancy both to the Dignity in-house team and external suppliers / consultants where appropriate.

As Dignity has a portfolio of building property that ranges from modern portal frame warehouse type sheds to historic / medieval a range of management options are required to allow the client to manage asbestos in their properties. For sites under the control of Dignity, the client operates as per the Control of Asbestos Regulations with buildings firstly requiring an asbestos management survey (unless newer than 2000 in which case the site is recorded on the company asset database as such so no asbestos survey is required). Once this initial survey has been undertaken, asbestos remedial work (removal / encapsulation and / or labelling) is planned where necessary according to the condition and location of asbestos identified. Following this an annual asbestos re-inspection is undertaken by in-house property managers / surveyors to ensure the condition of asbestos material is maintained in good condition.

Where refurbishment or alteration of existing property is identified as part of Dignity's operational plans, an asbestos refurbishment or asbestos demolition survey is undertaken in advance of the works to ensure all asbestos has been identified and appropriate management solutions implemented. These have been particularly necessary in areas where significant alteration is required for the site.

Alverprise has been proud to work with Dignity to provide asbestos surveys for management, refurbishment or demolition, together with assistance with specialist asbestos consultancy where requested, across the entire space of England, Wales and Scotland. Back To List
