Should you do it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Why people call us in Penny Pot
Older coatings are often painted over many times, so age is hard to judge.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
- Landlord refurbishments
- Coatings scraped during DIY
- Coatings damaged by leaks
A school like Holy Trinity CofE Primary School should know from its asbestos register whether coatings have been tested.
What to look for in a quote
- What exactly is included: the areas, materials or samples
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- How fibres will be kept down
- What you will receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
Responsibilities for owners
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
Limits to be aware of
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- We test before removal, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
Common questions in Penny Pot
Do you cover Penny Pot and the area around Brookwood station?
Yes. Brookwood station is about 2.7 miles south of Penny Pot, and we cover both.
Do you cover small places like Penny Pot?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
How much does Artex removal cost in Penny Pot?
Room sizes, the method and the waste decide, so we quote after testing.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
The work room is sealed and kept clear. Often you can stay in other rooms.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?
It’s an option for an intact coating: covering it leaves it undisturbed. Never sand it beforehand, and record its location.
