DIY and asbestos
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
FAQs for Hangleton
Do you cover small places like Hangleton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work near Goring-By-Sea station?
Yes. Goring-By-Sea station is about 1 mile east of Hangleton, and we cover both.
Does all Artex contain asbestos?
Not necessarily: plenty of textured coatings contain no asbestos. A sample test tells you which you have.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Responsibilities for owners
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Hangleton must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
After we’ve finished in Hangleton
Note which other rooms have coatings, for future work.
Some practical advice:
- Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
- Empty the rooms in advance
- Each different coating needs testing
Avoid these
Don’t try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
Don’t sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
What’s included, and what is not
Worth knowing before you book:
- Big jobs need notifying in advance, so allow time
- Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
- We need the room cleared
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
Common materials
- Swirl and stipple patterns
- Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
- Artex ceilings
- Coated plasterboard
