FAQs for Chalksole Green
Do you cover small places like Chalksole Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Chalksole Green from London?
Chalksole Green is about 62 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?
Only once you know it’s clear. If it contains asbestos, sanding releases fibres.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
