Options to consider in Cheriton
Skimming over Artex avoids disturbing it, but don’t sand it smooth first, and the asbestos stays in the building. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
What you get
- Jobs planned to HSE guidance
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory

Duty holders and landlords in Cheriton
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Cheriton must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
What we do and don’t cover
We’re upfront about what’s included:
- Untested coatings are tested first, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
- Other materials may need their own approach
- We need the room cleared
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we see

Cheriton: your questions answered
Do you cover small places like Cheriton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
How far is Cheriton from London?
We cover Cheriton, about 56 miles from central London.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can I just skim over it?
You can, if it’s intact: skimming or boarding over avoids disturbing it. Don’t sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Is my textured ceiling in Cheriton asbestos?
Not necessarily: many textured coatings don’t contain asbestos. The only way to know is to test a sample.
Materials we deal with
Coated plasterboard
Board removal avoids stripping.
Textured walls
They’re tested and removed in the same way as ceilings.
Prices and what affects them
When we quote, we look at:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- How many samples are needed
- How much there is
- Access to the area
Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
What to photograph
The most useful photos are:
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
- Visible markings
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Cracks or breaks
Share the postcode, a short description and photos: use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
Looking after things afterwards
If you’ve covered a coating rather than removed it, record where it is.
After we’ve finished:
- Keep the results and paperwork
- Plan where you will stay or work while rooms are closed off
- Photos help us quote
- Empty the rooms in advance
What to avoid
Don’t sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
Keep away from flaking or fallen coating.
Should you do it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
