Artex removal for Bagnum
Artex removal in Bagnum
Covering an intact coating is one option, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. Typical materials include coated ceiling roses, swirl patterns and Artex ceilings, and people usually contact us about coatings already disturbed and walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit.
Village homes like those in Bagnum have often been altered several times, so coatings may date from earlier work. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Bagnum: your questions answered
Is asbestos common in Bagnum homes?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Bagnum may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you come out to small villages like Bagnum?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form.
How much does Artex removal cost in Bagnum?
Room size, method and waste all affect the price. We quote after testing.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?
You can, if it’s intact: skimming or boarding over avoids disturbing it. Never sand it beforehand, and record its location.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.
Choosing the right option
Skimming over Artex is an option, but never sand it first, and the asbestos stays in the building. We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.

Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

What we deal with in Bagnum
Coatings get damaged by water leaks, cracks and DIY, so they may start to flake.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Ceilings before skimming
- Walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit
- Damaged or cracked coatings
- Coatings scraped during DIY
A school like Ringwood School should know from its asbestos register whether coatings have been tested, before decorators start.

Things not to do
Hold off on drilling until you have a result.
If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces and ask for advice.
