Asbestos help in North Baddesley

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Artex removal near North Baddesley

Removing an asbestos textured coating means sealing off the room, keeping the coating wet and never sanding or scraping it dry. Typical materials include Artex ceilings, textured walls and coated ceiling roses, and typical jobs are flaking textured ceilings and coatings damaged by DIY.

In areas like North Baddesley, textured ceilings are a common renovation find, and testing comes first. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Prices and what affects them

Prices vary with:

  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • Material and condition
  • The size of the job
  • Access: height, lofts, steps and space

Dealing with asbestos before building work is usually cheaper than finding it mid-job, when the whole project can be held up.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

Your questions about Artex removal in North Baddesley

Do you cover North Baddesley from London?

We cover North Baddesley, about 69 miles from central London.

Do textured ceilings in North Baddesley homes contain asbestos?

Some older coatings do, and many do not. Only a test will tell you.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote.

How can I get a price?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

Do you cover North Baddesley?

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

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.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

How we work

If we are taking the boards down instead, they’re removed whole where possible and bagged or wrapped. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on.

  1. Send photos of the textured surfaces
  2. We test a sample of each coating
  3. We talk through the options
  4. We carry out the removal
  5. We dispose of the waste legally

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Dig out previous surveys
  • Let us know if something’s broken

With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
