Artex removal for Climping properties
Planning a renovation in Climping with textured ceilings? Test them before rewiring, fitting downlights or plastering. People often contact us about coatings damaged by DIY and ceilings due to be knocked through or removed, involving stipple finishes, coated plasterboard and swirl patterns.
Rural homes near Climping have often been altered over generations, so coatings may date from earlier work. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Climping questions
Is the Artex in my Climping home asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.
Do you cover small places like Climping?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Climping?
Yes, Climping is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The main risk is from disturbing it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area in the job.
Can I stay at home while you work?
The work room is sealed and kept clear. Often you can stay in other rooms.
Looking after things afterwards
The ceiling or wall is left ready for your plasterer.
A few practical points:
- Give us room sizes
- Test every different coating
- Photos help us quote
- Plan around the closed rooms
Things not to do
Do not try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
Don’t use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
Doing it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Options to consider in Climping

Common reasons for Artex jobs in Climping
Older coatings are often painted over many times, so age is hard to judge.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Structural work through coated ceilings
- Coatings in the way of electrical work
- Ceilings before skimming
- Rented homes refurbished between tenants
For a school such as St Mary's CofE Primary School, the duty holder’s records should show any coatings.
