Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
FAQs for Oxshott
Do you work near Oxshott station?
Yes. Oxshott station is close to the centre of Oxshott, and we cover the whole area.
Is the Artex in my Oxshott home asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many do not. Only a test will tell you.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. It needs a contractor with an HSE licence.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
The work room is sealed and kept clear. Often you can stay in other rooms.
What we do and don’t cover
What’s in and what’s out:
- We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
- Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, so allow time
- We need the room cleared
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.
