Artex removal near Buriton
Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Artex removal in Buriton
A textured ceiling in good condition is low risk if it’s left alone. The problem comes when it’s sanded, scraped dry, drilled or knocked through during a renovation, which is why testing first matters in Buriton. Typical jobs include ceilings due for plastering or skimming and ceilings before downlights go in, involving Artex ceilings, stipple finishes and coated ceiling roses.
Rural homes near Buriton have often been altered over generations, so coatings may date from earlier work. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

Questions from Buriton
Could my house in Buriton contain asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Buriton may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover small places like Buriton?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
What does it cost to remove Artex?
It depends on the area, the method and the waste, and we quote once the coating has been tested.
Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?
Not until it’s been tested. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.
What happens next
Note which other rooms have coatings, so future work is planned properly.
Some practical advice:
- Photos help us quote
- Plan where you’ll stay or work while rooms are closed off
- Keep the results and paperwork
- Keep pets out of the work area
Things not to do
Plan testing before the renovation starts.
Do not try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
