Helpful guides
Artex removal for Broughton properties
Not every textured coating contains asbestos. Testing a sample tells you, so your plasterer can carry on if it’s clear. Typical materials include coated ceiling roses, Artex ceilings and textured walls, and people generally contact us about ceilings coming down and coatings scraped during DIY.
In areas like Broughton, textured ceilings are a common renovation find. We only recommend work that’s needed.

What we do and do not cover
A few things to be aware of:
- Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, so allow time
- We leave the surface ready for your plasterer
- Untested coatings are tested first, since a negative result changes everything
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.

What else we do in Broughton
Should you do it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.
What it might be made of
Textured walls
They’re tested and removed in the same way as ceilings.
Patched areas
Different areas may need separate samples.
After the job
We clean the room and dispose of the waste legally, with a consignment note.
To avoid problems in future:
- Give us room sizes
- Empty the rooms in advance
- Photos help us quote
- Each different coating needs testing
Avoid these
Don’t drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.
Do not use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
