Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.

How artex removal works in Dippenhall
HSE’s code of practice says work on textured coatings will not normally be licensable. Larger-scale removal using steam or gel is notifiable non-licensed work. Typical jobs include ceilings coming down and coatings damaged by DIY, including textured walls, coated ceiling roses and stipple finishes.
In areas like Dippenhall, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

FAQs for Dippenhall
Do you cover small places like Dippenhall?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Dippenhall and the area around Farnham station?
Yes, we cover Dippenhall and the area towards Farnham station, about 1.8 miles east.
When can you start?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
How much does Artex removal cost in Dippenhall?
Room sizes, the method and the waste decide, so we quote after testing.
Materials we deal with
Coated plasterboard
Board removal avoids stripping.
Patched areas
We may sample patches separately.
After the job
The surface is left ready for making good.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Keep pets out of the work area
- File the test result and waste note
- Test every different coating
- Plan where you’ll stay or work while rooms are closed off
Don’ts
Do not use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces.
Doing it yourself?
With a professional job, you get a record: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
What it costs
Prices vary with:
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed

Why people call us in Dippenhall
Textured coatings were popular for decades because they hid cracks and uneven plaster, and some contained a small amount of white asbestos (chrysotile) for strength.
Common situations in older properties include:
- Coatings already disturbed
- Rented flats before redecoration
- Walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit
- Damaged or cracked coatings
Non-domestic buildings like Potters Gate CofE Primary School should already have records of any textured coatings.
