Asbestos help in Limmo Peninsula

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

If we are taking the boards down instead, they’re removed whole where possible and bagged or wrapped. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there is no confusion.
- Tell us which rooms and surfaces, and roughly how big they are
- We test the coating if it hasn’t been tested
- If it contains asbestos, we agree the method and send a quote
- The room is sealed off and the coating removed wet, never sanded or dry-scraped
- We clean up and dispose of the waste legally

- Ensure pets and children are elsewhere

Common questions in Limmo Peninsula
Do textured ceilings in Limmo Peninsula homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.
Could my house in Limmo Peninsula contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Limmo Peninsula may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.
What if my house is newer?
Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
Can I just skim over it?
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but never sand it first, and keep a record.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Afterwards
Keep the test result and waste paperwork with your property records.
Some practical advice:
- File the test result and waste note
- Give us room sizes
- Photos help us quote
- Keep pets away
Avoid these
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
Plan testing before the renovation starts.
What affects the price in Limmo Peninsula
The cost depends on:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- What the material is and its state
- The number of samples or the size of the building
The cost of Artex removal depends on the job: the materials, the amount, access and what paperwork is needed. We quote each job individually.
What to photograph
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:
- Visible markings
- A close-up from a safe distance
- A rough size or measurement
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
