Other services in Middle Wallop

Common questions in Middle Wallop
Do you cover small places like Middle Wallop?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do textured ceilings in Middle Wallop homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Is it OK to scrape off Artex?
Not before testing. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Tell us about the property and what you need.

Yes. We cover Middle Wallop and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Send us the postcode for a quote.
