Sherfield English questions
Could my house in Sherfield English contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Sherfield English may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is the Artex in my Sherfield English home asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?
It’s an option for an intact coating: skimming or boarding over avoids disturbing it. Don’t sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
It covers the higher-risk materials: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?
Not before testing. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.
Afterwards
The surface is left ready for making good.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Send photos of the coatings
- Give us room sizes
- Keep pets out of the work area
- Test every different coating
Don’ts
Plan testing before the renovation starts.
Don’t use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If your business premises in Sherfield English were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
