Where asbestos turns up

Renovations disturb coatings: sanding to smooth a ceiling, scraping it off dry or drilling for lights.

Common situations in older properties include:

  • Ceilings before skimming
  • Walls before tiling
  • Ceilings coming down
  • Coatings scraped during DIY

If you are refurbishing flats near Hampton station, coatings can be tested while the flat is empty.

Before you book anyone

  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • The documents you’ll receive
  • Waste disposal and the consignment note
  • Insurance appropriate to asbestos work

DIY and asbestos

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.

  4. We seal off the room and remove the coating wet

Choosing the right option

Strip the coating or take the boards down? Each has pros and cons, depending on the room. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What you get

  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • Houses, flats and business premises

The scope of Artex removal

What’s in and what’s out:

  • Untested coatings are tested first, since a negative result changes everything
  • Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
  • Plastering and making good are generally separate jobs

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.

Materials in Hampton

  • Textured walls
  • Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
  • Artex ceilings
  • Patched or painted coatings
  • Coated plasterboard
  • Swirl and stipple patterns

More about this service

After the job

If you’ve covered a coating rather than removed it, record where it is.

Some practical advice:

  • Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
  • Plan where you will stay or work while rooms are closed off
  • Empty the rooms in advance
  • File the test result and waste note

Avoid these

Do not drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.

Do not try DIY removal products on untested coatings.

Common questions in Hampton

Do you cover Hampton and the area around Hampton station?

Yes. Hampton station is about 0.5 miles south of Hampton, and we cover both.

Can you work in Hampton with London’s parking rules?

Yes, we work across London. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Is it OK to scrape off Artex?

Only once you know it’s clear. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.

How can I get a price?

Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

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.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
