Asbestos help in Bramley Green

Artex removal for Bramley Green properties

Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. A small sample tells you which you have, so your plasterer can carry on if it’s clear. From textured walls before a refit and flaking textured ceilings, we deal with stipple finishes, coated plasterboard and Artex ceilings.

Rural homes near Bramley Green have often been altered over generations, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

How we price Artex removal

The price of Artex removal depends mainly on:

  • The size of the job
  • What the material is and its state
  • The survey scope
  • How easy it is to reach

Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

What to photograph

To help us quote quickly, send:

  • A wide shot showing where the material is

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If your business premises in Bramley Green were built before 2000, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Materials we deal with

Patched areas

We may sample patches separately.

Painted coatings

Many coatings have been painted over, but the coating underneath is the same.

FAQs for Bramley Green

Do you cover Bramley Green and the area around Bramley (Hants) station?

Yes. Bramley (Hants) station is about 0.7 miles north-west of Bramley Green, and we cover both.

Could my house in Bramley Green contain asbestos?

Any home in Bramley Green built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?

Not before testing. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.

Can I stay at home while you work?

You can often stay in the rest of the house: the work room is closed off until it’s finished.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

Should I take the ceiling down instead?

Either can work: the right choice depends on the room. We’ll advise room by room.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to every area in the job.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice.

Should you do it yourself?

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

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Where asbestos turns up

Textured coatings continued to be made after asbestos was taken out of them, so a textured ceiling isn’t automatically asbestos.

These are some of the things we deal with in Bramley Green:

  • Ceilings before downlights go in
  • Rented homes refurbished between tenants
  • Coatings damaged by leaks
  • Ceilings before skimming

Non-domestic buildings like Sherfield School should already have records of any textured coatings, before decorators start.

Before you book anyone

  • How fibres will be kept down
  • Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
  • That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
  • What’s excluded, such as making good or a new roof

What happens next

If other rooms have textured coatings, record whether they’ve been tested, so future work is planned properly.

To avoid problems in future:

  • Test every different coating
  • File the test result and waste note
  • Book your plasterer after removal
  • Give us room sizes

Don’ts

Don’t try DIY removal products on untested coatings.

Don’t sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.

Limits to be aware of

We are upfront about what’s included:

  • The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
  • We test before removal, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
  • We leave the surface ready for your plasterer

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal before you book.

Common materials

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