Asbestos and pollutant surveys in the canton of Zurich
In Zurich, the private inspection procedure for conversions and deconstruction needs to be planned ahead. It concerns review of the disposal concept submitted for authorisation.
We work throughout Switzerland. State your preferred language for discussions and the report when enquiring.
Describe my projectThe role of private inspection
The canton organises “private Kontrolle” to review disposal concepts and support municipal services. It publishes a list of authorised persons and documents for the procedure.
Coordinate the survey and inspection
The survey provides data on materials and their pollutants; inspection of the concept is a separate step. The project representative must therefore identify who handles each intervention and which documents are expected. Conducting a survey does not in itself confer authorisation for private inspection.
Preparing your Zurich application
- Send municipal instructions on private inspection.
- Attach available plans, reports and disposal concepts.
- Identify the project representative and inspector, if appointed.
