Artex removal near Bramley

Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. Whether it’s walls before tiling and rented homes refurbished between tenants, we cover textured walls, coated ceiling roses and coated plasterboard.

Homes in towns and villages like Bramley may have textured ceilings in several rooms, so test each different coating. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Bramley: your questions answered

Do textured ceilings in Bramley homes contain asbestos?

Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Do older homes in Bramley have asbestos?

Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Does all Artex contain asbestos?

Not every coating does: plenty of textured coatings contain no asbestos. A sample test tells you which you have.

Can you help with a flat?

We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.

Can I just skim over it?

Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but do not sand it first, and record that it’s there.

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

Looking after things afterwards

The ceiling or wall is left ready for your plasterer.

After we have finished:

  • Send photos of the coatings
  • Test every different coating
  • Line up the plasterer for afterwards
  • Clear the rooms before the work

Don’ts

Don’t use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.

For landlords, agents and businesses

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.

If you run a business from older premises in Bramley, you’re likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

A closer look at the materials

Patched areas

Different areas may need separate samples.

Painted coatings

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

Which option is right?

Very cheap quotes for Artex removal can mean dry scraping or sanding, which releases fibres. Ask how the coating will be removed and where the waste goes. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

How we work in Bramley

  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Waste paperwork for every removal
  • Work done to the regulations
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing

See our prices page and the cost guide.

Can I do it myself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

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.

The scope of Artex removal

Some limits to bear in mind:

  • Plastering and making good are typically separate jobs
  • Other materials may need their own approach
  • The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise before booking.

What we deal with

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

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
