Questions from Chilton Green
Do textured ceilings in Chilton Green homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.
Is asbestos common in Chilton Green homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Chilton Green can contain it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
How much does Artex removal cost in Chilton Green?
Room size, method and waste all affect the price. We quote once we know what it contains.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.
Can I do it myself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
What we do and don’t cover
We are upfront about what’s included:
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
- Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
