Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
What does it cost to remove Artex?
Room sizes, the method and the waste decide, so we quote after testing.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually are not licensed.
Does all Artex contain asbestos?
Not necessarily: plenty of textured coatings contain no asbestos. A sample test tells you which you have.
