About our artex removal in Burley Street
Textured coatings like Artex were used on ceilings and walls for decades, and older ones can contain a little asbestos. We test the coating, then remove it safely if it contains asbestos. People often contact us about structural work through coated ceilings and extensions that cut into ceilings, involving stipple finishes, coated ceiling roses and textured walls.
In a village like Burley Street, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

How we price Artex removal
Quotes vary because of:
- The size of the job
- Access to the area
- Disposal costs
- The number of samples or the size of the building
What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Sending photos
Helpful photos:
- Labels, if any
- The access route
- A clear close-up
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.
Doing it yourself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
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.

We finish by cleaning the room thoroughly. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and keeps dust to a minimum.

FAQs for Burley Street
Could my house in Burley Street contain asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do textured ceilings in Burley Street homes contain asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Only a test will tell you.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
How do I get a quote?
Just use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we will arrange a visit.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Don’t try to clean up the debris yourself, and ask for advice.
Your options compared
A low price may mean shortcuts, which releases fibres. Ask how the coating will be removed and where the waste goes. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
