Hanworth questions
Can you work in Hanworth with London’s parking rules?
We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Do you cover Hanworth and the area around Hampton station?
Yes. Hampton station is about 1.1 miles south of Hanworth, and we cover both.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Should I take the ceiling down instead?
Either can work: it depends on the room and the condition of the ceiling. We will advise room by room.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor work isn’t affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?
Not until it’s been tested. If it contains asbestos, sanding or dry scraping releases fibres.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
If you’re responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Hanworth, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
What we deal with in Hanworth
Older coatings are often painted over many times, which can make them look newer than they are.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Coatings damaged by DIY
- Textured walls before a refit
- Extensions that cut into ceilings
- Structural work through coated ceilings
Older homes across Hanworth may have coatings added during past renovations.
Questions to ask before you book
- Any exclusions
- For licensed work, a valid HSE licence
- Suitable insurance for the work
- The scope of the job, in writing
Can I do it myself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
What it might be made of

A small sample from each different coating tells you whether it contains asbestos.
