FAQs for Eversley Cross
Do you cover Eversley Cross and the area around Crowthorne station?
Yes. Crowthorne station is about 2.3 miles north-east of Eversley Cross, and we cover both.
Could my house in Eversley Cross contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Do you cover Eversley Cross?
Yes, we do: our area includes Eversley Cross and the places around it. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: lagging, sprayed coatings and most asbestos insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?
Only once you know it’s clear. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Artex removal for Eversley Cross properties
Left undisturbed, an intact textured coating is low risk. Trouble starts when it’s sanded, dry-scraped, drilled or knocked through, which is why testing first matters in Eversley Cross. We often deal with Artex ceilings, coated plasterboard and swirl patterns, and people generally contact us about ceilings due to be knocked through or removed and coatings already disturbed.
In towns and villages like Eversley Cross, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Can I do it myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
