Navigate UKAS enforcement through Tailored Solutions
It is estimated that there are between 475-550 non-UKAS accredited asbestos surveying practises in the UK as of 2025. These range from single sole traders to SME's with an average of 4 surveyors.
UKAS Accreditation Overhaul:
What these new proposals mean for Non-Accredited Surveyors
If UKAS accreditation becomes a legal requirement, non-accredited firms will be barred from providing any asbestos surveys. At Accredix we engage with businesses that will be critically affected by this change in the regulations. We help asbestos surveying firms understand their position, assess their options, and plan strategically for the future. Our Strategic Options Audit (SOA) provides a detailed, independent analysis of your business — including client base, turnover, staffing, and operations — and sets out your three strongest options based on your unique situation.
Prepare your business for UKAS enforcement
It is predicted (>70%) that the HSE will make UKAS accreditation mandatory folllowing the end of their consultation in Q4 2025. Prepare Early to Protect Your Options.
With regulatory changes looming, businesses that act early will be best placed to protect their value and preserve their full range of strategic options. Waiting until a transition or grace period is announced risks compressing timescales, limiting choices, and weakening negotiating positions.
Have you fully assessed the impact of losing your legal ability to carry out asbestos surveys?
If accreditation becomes mandatory, what happens next — to your revenue, your clients, your staff, your premises? What’s your plan if the core of your business is suddenly removed? As a director, it’s your responsibility to look ahead, understand the risks, and act before options disappear. Are you ready to make those decisions — or are you hoping the change won’t come?
