About our artex removal in Bush Hill Park
Left undisturbed, an intact textured coating is low risk. The problem comes when it’s sanded, scraped dry, drilled or knocked through during a renovation, which is why testing first matters in Bush Hill Park. Typical jobs include ceilings due for plastering or skimming and structural work through coated ceilings, involving coated ceiling roses, coated plasterboard and Artex ceilings.
In London conversions like those in Bush Hill Park, one ceiling may have several coatings from different decades, so each may need testing. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

Duty holders and landlords in Bush Hill Park
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Choosing the right option
Very cheap quotes for Artex removal can mean dry scraping or sanding. Ask how the coating will be removed and where the waste goes. Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when the whole project can be held up.

Bush Hill Park: your questions answered
Do you work in Bush Hill Park despite London parking restrictions?
Yes, we work across London. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.
Is asbestos common in Bush Hill Park homes?
If your home in Bush Hill Park was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you cannot tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.
What if the weather’s bad?
It depends on the job: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
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.
Should I take the ceiling down instead?
Both are options: the right choice depends on the room. We will recommend one for each room.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
