Artex removal in Crondall
Planning a renovation in Crondall with textured ceilings? Get them tested before electricians or plasterers start. From ceilings due for plastering or skimming and rented homes refurbished between tenants, we cover coated ceiling roses, coated plasterboard and stipple finishes and more.
Village homes like those in Crondall have often been altered several times, so coatings may date from earlier work. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, as the right approach depends on the material.

Questions from Crondall
Do you come out to small villages like Crondall?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Crondall from London?
We cover Crondall, about 38 miles from central London.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Usually not: HSE’s code of practice says textured coating work is not normally licensable, though large steam or gel jobs are notifiable.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises, and any existing asbestos register.
Can I just skim over it?
You can, if it’s intact: covering it leaves it undisturbed. Do not sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
Usually you can use other rooms: the room being worked on is sealed off and kept clear.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Can I do it myself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
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.

Ceiling roses and cornices
They’re included in the test if they’re coated.

For landlords, agents and businesses
If you run a business from older premises in Crondall, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Crondall must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
What we deal with in Crondall
Coatings get damaged by water leaks, cracks and DIY, so they may start to flake.
In older properties, we often see:
- Ceilings due for plastering or skimming
- Ceilings before downlights go in
- Extensions that cut into ceilings
- Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
Non-domestic buildings like Crondall Primary School should already have records of any textured coatings.
