Crowdhill: your questions answered
How far is Crowdhill from London?
We cover Crowdhill, about 63 miles from central London.
Do older homes in Crowdhill have asbestos?
If your home in Crowdhill was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Can I just skim over it?
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but never sand it first, and keep a record.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Doing it yourself?
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
What happens next
If other rooms have textured coatings, record whether they’ve been tested, for future work.
Once we’re done:
- Plan where you’ll stay or work while rooms are closed off
- File the test result and waste note
- Keep pets out of the work area
- Book your plasterer after removal
Avoid these
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces.
How we price Artex removal
Our quotes take into account:
- The size of the job
- Travel and parking
- How much waste there is
- Licensed or non-licensed
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our guides list published price ranges from other companies, with sources.
Photos that help
To help us quote quickly, send:
- Visible markings
- How we’d reach it
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Approximate dimensions
Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: don’t touch the material, just send them through our quote form.
Which option is right?
DIY removal products are sold for textured coatings, but if the coating contains asbestos, HSE guidance applies. Test first. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
