Landlords, managing agents and employers

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

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.

Artex removal near Hendon

Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. Testing a sample tells you, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. Typical jobs include coatings damaged by leaks and ceilings before downlights go in, including stipple finishes, textured walls and swirl patterns.

Ceilings in Hendon conversions can have more than one coating, so we test each coating. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Do textured ceilings in Hendon homes contain asbestos?

Some older coatings do, and many do not. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
