Charndon questions
Do you cover Charndon from London?
Charndon is about 49 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do you cover small places like Charndon?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is typically needed.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Duty holders and landlords in Charndon
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Charndon, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
After the job
If other rooms have textured coatings, record whether they’ve been tested, so future work is planned properly.
Keeping things safe:
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
- Give us room sizes
- Send photos of the coatings
- File the test result and waste note
What to avoid
Do not sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
