Haslar: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Haslar homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Haslar may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you come out to small villages like Haslar?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
How much does Artex removal cost in Haslar?
It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote after testing.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
Do you cover Haslar?
We do: Haslar is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos and we will quote.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Can I stay at home while you work?
The work room is sealed and kept clear. Often you can stay in other rooms.
Can I just skim over it?
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but don’t sand it first, and record that it’s there.
Can I do it myself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
