Helpful guides
Can I do it myself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Common questions in Shottesbrooke
Could my house in Shottesbrooke contain asbestos?
Any home in Shottesbrooke built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Shottesbrooke and the area around Twyford station?
Yes. Twyford station is about 3.3 miles west of Shottesbrooke, and we cover both.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
How quickly can you come out?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
What if the weather’s bad?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Do you need a licence to remove Artex?
Usually not: HSE treats textured coating work as normally non-licensed, but larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified first.
Should I take the ceiling down instead?
It depends on the room and the condition of the ceiling. We’ll explain the options.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
After we have finished in Shottesbrooke
After removal, the room is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, and you get the paperwork.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Clear the rooms before the work
- Photos help us quote
- File the test result and waste note
- Keep pets away
Don’ts
Keep away from flaking or fallen coating.
Don’t sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
