Should you do it yourself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Fifield, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

Typical Artex jobs in Fifield
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.
You cannot tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Ceilings before plastering
- Rented homes refurbished between tenants
- Damaged or cracked coatings
- Coatings scraped during DIY
A school like Braywood CofE First School should know from its asbestos register whether coatings have been tested.

Fifield questions
Do you cover small places like Fifield?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Is the Artex in my Fifield home asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you quote from photos?
Clear photos and measurements are often enough; if not, we will arrange to see it.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but never sand it first, and keep a record.
Does all Artex contain asbestos?
Not necessarily: many textured coatings do not contain asbestos. A test will tell you.
After the job
Note which other rooms have coatings, so future work is planned properly.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- File the test result and waste note
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
- Empty the rooms in advance
- Plan around the closed rooms
What to avoid
Keep away from flaking or fallen coating and ask for advice.
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
- Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
- Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
- Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
- Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
