For an asbestos coating, the room is sealed, the coating kept wet and nothing sanded or dry-scraped. Typical jobs include rented flats before redecoration and ceilings before skimming, involving coated ceiling roses, stipple finishes and swirl patterns.
In a village like Amport, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Amport questions
Is asbestos common in Amport homes?
Any home in Amport built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover small places like Amport?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
How can I get a price?
Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Can I just skim over it?
Covering it is an option if it’s intact, but do not sand it first, and record that it’s there.
What we deal with in Amport
Asbestos-free coatings were also made, so a textured ceiling is not automatically asbestos.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Loft conversions
- Coatings already disturbed
- Textured walls before a refit
- Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
For rented flats close to Grateley station, coatings can be tested while the flat is empty.
