About our artex removal in Buckland
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole than to strip the coating. We’ll talk you through the options for your rooms in Buckland. Typical jobs include walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit and loft conversions and extensions, involving coated plasterboard, coated ceiling roses and swirl patterns.
In a village like Buckland, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. We identify materials before planning removal, as the right approach depends on the material.

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Questions from Buckland
Do textured ceilings in Buckland homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do you cover small places like Buckland?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so a home built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. The related diseases often take decades to develop, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job, and to be available for questions.
How much does Artex removal cost in Buckland?
It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote once we know what it contains.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
DIY and asbestos
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
