Artex removal for Bramling
Artex removal for Bramling properties
Not every textured coating contains asbestos. A small sample tells you which you have, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. Typical jobs include ceilings before downlights go in and loft conversions and extensions, including textured walls, swirl patterns and coated plasterboard.
In towns and villages like Bramling, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Common questions in Bramling
Do you cover Bramling from London?
Bramling is about 58 miles from central London, well within our area.
Do textured ceilings in Bramling homes contain asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Can you help a business or landlord?
We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always, including whether VAT is included.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
Can I just skim over it?
It’s an option for an intact coating: skimming or boarding over avoids disturbing it. Never sand it beforehand, and record its location.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
The process
On the day, we seal off the room and protect floors and fittings, and keep the coating damp as we work. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first.

Typical Artex jobs in Bramling

- Ceilings before skimming
- Extensions that cut into ceilings
- Coatings already disturbed
- Rented flats before redecoration
Older homes across Bramling may have coatings added during past renovations.
