Duty holders and landlords in Green Hailey
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
The scope of Artex removal
Worth knowing before you book:
- We need the room cleared
- Big jobs need notifying in advance, so allow time
- We test before removal, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Materials we see
- Artex ceilings
- Coated plasterboard
- Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
- Textured walls
- Swirl and stipple patterns
- Patched or painted coatings
After we have finished in Green Hailey
File the result and the paperwork.
Some practical advice:
- Keep the results and paperwork
- Keep pets away
- Photos help us quote
- Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
Avoid these
Don’t try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
Hold off on drilling until you have a result.
What it might be made of
Ceiling roses and cornices
They’re included in the test if they’re coated.
Painted coatings
Many coatings have been painted over, but the coating underneath is the same.
Common questions in Green Hailey
Could my house in Green Hailey contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Monks Risborough station?
Yes. Monks Risborough station is about 1.5 miles north-west of Green Hailey, and we cover both.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
You can often stay in the rest of the house: the work room is closed off until it’s finished.
Is it OK to scrape off Artex?
Not before testing. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
DIY and asbestos
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
