Artex removal for Brading properties
For an asbestos coating, the room is sealed, the coating kept wet and nothing sanded or dry-scraped, with the waste bagged and taken to a permitted site. From textured walls before a refit and loft conversions, we cover swirl patterns, coated ceiling roses and stipple finishes.
Rural homes near Brading have often been altered over generations, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. Everything is explained in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

What else we do in Brading
DIY and asbestos
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

- Rented homes refurbished between tenants

Worth knowing before you book:

What paperwork will I get?
