Artex removal in Boveney
Artex and similar coatings are common on ceilings in Boveney, and those applied before 2000 can contain a small amount of asbestos. We test the coating, then remove it safely if it contains asbestos. Whether it’s damaged or cracked coatings and walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit, we deal with swirl patterns, Artex ceilings and coated ceiling roses and more.

Questions from Boveney
Do textured ceilings in Boveney homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Could my house in Boveney contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
For managing agents and freeholders in Boveney, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Choosing the right option
You will find DIY products for removing Artex, but if the coating contains asbestos, HSE guidance applies. Test first. Access makes a big difference to cost, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.

Common situations in older properties include:
- Ceilings coming down

For a school such as Homer First School and Nursery, the duty holder’s records should show any coatings, before decorators start.
