Artex removal in Bagshot
For businesses and landlords in Bagshot
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Artex removal in Bagshot
According to HSE, textured coating work is normally non-licensed. Bigger jobs using steam or gel must be notified before they start. Typical jobs include coatings damaged by leaks and coatings scraped during DIY, involving stipple finishes, coated ceiling roses and Artex ceilings.

Where asbestos turns up
Most problems come during renovation: sanding to smooth a ceiling, scraping it off dry or drilling for lights releases fibres.
These come up again and again:
- Ceilings coming down
- Extensions that cut into ceilings
- Landlord refurbishments
- Textured walls before a refit
A school like Bagshot Infant School should know from its asbestos register whether coatings have been tested.
