Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Artex removal near Felderland
Covering an intact coating is one option, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. From damaged or cracked coatings and walls before tiling, we cover textured walls, coated plasterboard and coated ceiling roses and more.
In a village like Felderland, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike, often added during past renovations. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Where asbestos turns up
People used Artex to cover cracks and uneven ceilings, and some contained a small amount of white asbestos (chrysotile) for strength.

- Rented flats before redecoration

Questions from Felderland
Do older homes in Felderland have asbestos?
If your home in Felderland was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work near Sandwich station?
Yes, we cover Felderland and the area towards Sandwich station, about 1 mile north-east.
Does weather affect the work?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
Usually you can use other rooms: the work room is closed off until it’s finished.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
DIY and asbestos
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
