Artex removal for Felpham
About our artex removal in Felpham
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 walls before tiling and coatings damaged by leaks, we deal with swirl patterns, textured walls and Artex ceilings and more.
Homes in areas like Felpham may have textured ceilings in several rooms, so test each different coating. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Your options compared
Testing first can save a lot: a clear result means normal methods. A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

After the job
If you’ve covered a coating rather than removed it, record where it is.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Each different coating needs testing
- File the test result and waste note
- Clear the rooms before the work
- Photos help us quote
Things not to do
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
Plan testing before the renovation starts.
The process
We soften the coating and take it off by hand, never sanded or scraped dry. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and use controls to keep dust down.
- Tell us where the textured ceilings and walls are
- We sample each different coating for testing
- If asbestos is found, we explain the options and quote
- The room is sealed, and the coating removed wet or the boards taken down
- The room is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site with paperwork
Before we arrive
- Dig out previous surveys
- Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
- Let us know where we can park
