Landlords, managing agents and employers
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
How it works
For board removal, we take the boards down in whole pieces and bagged or wrapped. Before anything starts, we confirm the areas and materials with you, so there is no confusion.
- Send photos of the textured surfaces
- We arrange testing
- We talk through the options
- We remove it safely if that is what you choose
- We dispose of the waste legally
Before we arrive
- Keep away from the material in the meantime
- Tell us about parking and access
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere

Materials we deal with
Coated plasterboard
Board removal avoids stripping.
Artex ceilings
We test each different coating.
Should you do it yourself?
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
The scope of Artex removal
To be clear about the scope:
- Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- Plastering and making good are typically separate jobs
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Common materials
- Coated plasterboard
- Swirl and stipple patterns
- Artex ceilings
- Textured walls
- Patched or painted coatings
- Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
How we price Artex removal
We base our quote on:
- Access to the area
- Waste quantity and disposal
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Travel and parking
When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
What to photograph
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
- Labels, if any
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
- A closer photo of the material, without touching it
Each job is priced individually. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 to get started.
Questions from Frogham
Do you come out to small villages like Frogham?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you work on properties in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, though access to rural buildings may need planning.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test checks specific materials; a survey checks a whole building or work area. For building work, a survey is generally needed.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
The work room is sealed and kept clear. You may be able to use the rest of the house.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes, of course. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?
Only once you know it’s clear. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.
How do I get a quote?
Call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes. Send us the details of the premises.

Leaks and DIY can damage coatings, which can make them crumble.
These are some of the things we deal with in Frogham:
- Rented homes refurbished between tenants
