Afterwards

We clean the room and dispose of the waste legally, with a consignment note.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Test every different coating

Don’ts

Keep away from flaking or fallen coating and ask for advice.

Do not use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.

Artex removal for Bure Park properties

Removing an asbestos textured coating means sealing off the room, keeping the coating wet and never sanding or scraping it dry, with the waste bagged and taken to a permitted site. People often contact us about coatings already disturbed and ceilings before plastering, including swirl patterns, Artex ceilings and coated plasterboard.

Homes in areas like Bure Park may have textured ceilings in several rooms, so test each different coating. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

For landlords, agents and businesses

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Bure Park must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

What happens

We soften the coating and take it off by hand, with no sanding or dry scraping. Unexpected finds are discussed with you first before carrying on.

  1. Get in touch with photos
  2. We test a sample of each coating
  3. We explain your options: leave, cover or remove
  4. We carry out the removal
  5. We dispose of the waste legally

Getting ready

  • Warn neighbours if needed
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Mention any damage before we arrive

Questions from Bure Park

Could my house in Bure Park contain asbestos?

Any home in Bure Park built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover Bure Park and the area around Bicester North station?

Yes, we cover Bure Park and the area towards Bicester North station, about 0.6 miles south-east.

Can you quote from photos?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.

Do you work on commercial premises?

Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. We will give you dates when we quote.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.

DIY and asbestos

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Options to consider in Bure Park

Typical Artex jobs in Bure Park

Textured coatings continued to be made after asbestos was taken out of them, so testing is the only way to know.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Loft conversions and extensions
  • Ceilings before plastering
  • Ceilings coming down
  • Ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights

If you’re refurbishing a rental near Bicester North station, a void period is a good time to deal with textured ceilings.
