Afterwards

After we’ve finished:
- Photos help us quote

- Keep the results and paperwork
- Empty the rooms in advance
Don’ts
Test before the builders arrive.
Do not sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
Can I do it myself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
What we deal with
- Coated plasterboard
- Textured walls
- Patched or painted coatings
- Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
- Artex ceilings
- Swirl and stipple patterns
FAQs for Beacon's Bottom
Is the Artex in my Beacon's Bottom home asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Could my house in Beacon's Bottom contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Normally not, according to HSE. Larger steam or gel jobs must be notified first.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
How do I get a quote?
Just ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Choosing the right option
DIY removal products are sold for textured coatings, but if it contains asbestos, the job needs proper controls. Test first. Our quotes are clear about VAT, so you can compare like with like.
