Hi Everyone
working on a job tomorrow need some advice
old semi detached about 1950s possibly older, the woman who lives there has been renting and she found out the house had no earth when the sparky came to change some lights. so total re wire channels everywhere
he also found an asbestos board that the consumer unit was on.
and told her to get it removed or hes not doin anthing
what risks are there for me in this?
ive got to overboard a ceiling over artex then reskim the walls
how do I know what im screwing into isnt asbestos when i overboard the ceiling?
ive herd its in some old artex is it better to use bonding coat then skim a day later so im not disturbing it.
i know its bad and i should but i dont know what the risks are for plasterers on these old properties
can't mess about when its your health!
any comments welcome
