DIY and asbestos
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
How we price Artex removal
What drives the price:
- Parking and access charges
- How easy it is to reach
- How many samples are needed
- The quantity or area
Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Helping us quote
Photos often save us a visit:
- Approximate dimensions
- Visible markings
- The access route
- Cracks or breaks

For landlords, agents and businesses
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Questions from Broughton
Do older homes in Broughton have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you work near Woburn Sands station?
Yes. Woburn Sands station is about 2.8 miles south-east of Broughton, and we cover both.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Is my textured ceiling in Broughton asbestos?
Not necessarily, as many do not. A test will tell you.
Is it better to remove the coating or the ceiling?
Both work; it depends on the room. We’ll explain the options.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
Can I just skim over it?
It’s an option for an intact coating: covering it leaves it undisturbed. Don’t sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.
Looking after things afterwards
The surface is left ready for making good.
Staying safe afterwards:
- Keep the results and paperwork
