Duty holders and landlords in Radnage
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
Weighing up your options
Skimming over Artex avoids disturbing it, but do not sand it smooth first, and it remains in place. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

Questions from Radnage
Do you come out to small villages like Radnage?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do textured ceilings in Radnage homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.
Could my home contain asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE’s code of practice says textured coating work is not normally licensable, but larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified first.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.

Can I do it myself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
