Where asbestos turns up
Most problems come during renovation: sanding, dry scraping or drilling releases fibres.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Coatings in the way of electrical work
- Coatings damaged by leaks
- Rented homes refurbished between tenants
- Structural work through coated ceilings
If your home is one of the older properties in Aaron's Hill, near St Mark's Church and Community Centre or elsewhere, textured ceilings may date from an earlier renovation.

Aaron's Hill questions
Do textured ceilings in Aaron's Hill homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
How do I get a quote?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs can’t start until they’ve been notified.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
Typically you can use other rooms: the work room is closed off until it’s finished.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
