Artex removal near Dagenham Green
For an asbestos coating, the room is sealed, the coating kept wet and nothing sanded or dry-scraped, with the waste bagged and taken to a permitted site. From flaking textured ceilings and ceilings coming down, we cover stipple finishes, coated plasterboard and coated ceiling roses.
In London conversions like those in Dagenham Green, one ceiling may have several coatings from different decades, so we test each coating. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

Questions from Dagenham Green
Do older homes in Dagenham Green have asbestos?
Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Dagenham Green and the area around Dagenham Dock station?
Yes. Dagenham Dock station is close to the centre of Dagenham Green, and we cover the whole area.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
How much does Artex removal cost in Dagenham Green?
It depends on the area, the method and the waste, so we quote after testing.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Is my textured ceiling in Dagenham Green asbestos?
Not necessarily: plenty of textured coatings contain no asbestos. A sample test tells you which you have.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Could my home contain asbestos?
You can’t tell by eye. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, especially in buildings from before 2000.
Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes vary because of:
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The survey scope
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
- The type of material and its condition
Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
Photos that help
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- Where we could park
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- Cracks or breaks
- A picture of the whole area

Choosing the right option
DIY removal products are sold for textured coatings, but if the coating contains asbestos, HSE guidance applies. Always test first. Dealing with asbestos before building work is normally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.
Why us?
- Quotes that spell out the scope
- Homes, rented property and workplaces
- Records for your files
- Work planned to HSE guidance and the regulations
See how we price jobs and published price ranges.
Afterwards
Tell your plasterer and electrician what was done.
Keeping things safe:
- Plan around the closed rooms
- Keep pets away
- Each different coating needs testing
- Book your plasterer after removal
Avoid these
Do not try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
- Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
- Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
