Artex removal near Castle Green
About our artex removal in Castle Green
Textured coatings like Artex were used on ceilings and walls for decades, and those applied before 2000 can contain a small amount of asbestos. We test first, then remove the coating with controlled wet methods if needed. Typical jobs include rented homes refurbished between tenants and ceilings due to be knocked through or removed, including stipple finishes, Artex ceilings and coated ceiling roses.
In places like Castle Green, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

FAQs for Castle Green
Do you cover Castle Green from London?
We cover Castle Green, about 25 miles from central London.
Do you work near Brookwood station?
Yes. Brookwood station is about 2.6 miles south-west of Castle Green, and we cover both.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
How much does Artex removal cost in Castle Green?
Room sizes, the method and the waste decide, and we quote once the coating has been tested.
Do you need a licence to remove Artex?
Generally not: HSE’s code of practice says textured coating work is not normally licensable, but larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified first.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.
What happens
We soften the coating and take it off by hand, with no sanding or dry scraping. We keep the work area clear of other people while we work, so children and pets should be kept elsewhere.
