How artex removal works in East Boldre

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole than to strip the coating. We will explain which suits your rooms. People often contact us about damaged or cracked coatings and rented flats before redecoration, involving textured walls, stipple finishes and coated ceiling roses.

In a village like East Boldre, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. We follow HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, whatever the size of the job.

After we have finished in East Boldre

Tell your plasterer and electrician what was done.

Some practical advice:

  • Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
  • Photos help us quote
  • Keep pets away
  • Keep the results and paperwork

Avoid these

Do not drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.

Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.

Step by step

We soften the coating and take it off by hand, with no sanding or dry scraping. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there is no confusion.

  1. Describe the rooms and coatings
  2. We test the coating if it hasn’t been tested
  3. If it contains asbestos, we agree the method and send a quote
  4. We seal the room and remove the coating with wet methods
  5. We clean up and dispose of the waste legally

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear access to the area, loft or garage
  • Let us know if something’s broken
  • Let us know where we can park

Questions from East Boldre

Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the New Forest National Park?

Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you come out to small villages like East Boldre?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do you work in East Boldre?

Yes, we do: East Boldre is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.

Can I just skim over it?

It’s an option for an intact coating: covering it leaves it undisturbed. Never sand it beforehand, and record its location.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us for advice.

Choosing the right option

A low price may mean shortcuts. Ask about the method and the waste. A price that looks too good to be true often is: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.

Why us?

  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Legal disposal, with paperwork
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces

Limits to be aware of

Before you book, note that:

  • We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
  • Other materials may need their own approach
  • We need the room cleared

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

More about this service

Can I do it myself?

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

If you run a business from older premises in East Boldre, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
