How artex removal works in Bosham Hoe

Removing an asbestos textured coating means sealing off the room, keeping the coating wet and never sanding or scraping it dry, with the waste bagged and taken to a permitted site. From coatings scraped during DIY and extensions that cut into ceilings, we deal with coated ceiling roses, stipple finishes and swirl patterns.

In places like Bosham Hoe, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Every job comes with paperwork, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

What we deal with in Bosham Hoe

  • Structural work through coated ceilings

If you are refurbishing a rental near Bosham station, a void period is a good time to deal with textured ceilings.

  3. We plan the removal and send a quote

Helpful guides

Questions from Bosham Hoe

Do textured ceilings in Bosham Hoe homes contain asbestos?

Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.

Do you cover Bosham Hoe and the area around Bosham station?

Yes, we cover Bosham Hoe and the area towards Bosham station, about 1.9 miles north.

What does licensed work mean?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes. Send us the details of the premises.

Can I just skim over it?

Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but never sand it first, and keep a record.

What if asbestos is found during building work?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.

Do you cover Bosham Hoe?

We do: our area includes Bosham Hoe and the places around it. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.

Does weather affect the work?

It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

Looking after things afterwards

Share the paperwork with your trades.

Keeping things safe:

  • Plan where you’ll stay or work while rooms are closed off
  • Keep pets out of the work area
  • Keep the results and paperwork
  • Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are

Don’ts

Do not drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.

Keep away from flaking or fallen coating and ask for advice.

What we do and do not cover

The usual limits are:

  • Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
  • Other materials may need their own approach
  • We need the room cleared

If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Common materials

  • Coated plasterboard
  • Textured walls
  • Artex ceilings
  • Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
  • Patched or painted coatings
  • Swirl and stipple patterns

Service details

Doing it yourself?

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

If you do find something during DIY, stop: leave the area, don’t clean it up, and ask for advice.
