Artex removal in Goose Green
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but the asbestos remains and needs recording. From loft conversions and landlord refurbishments, we deal with stipple finishes, coated plasterboard and textured walls.
In a village like Goose Green, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance.

Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Textured walls before a refit
- Ceilings before downlights go in

Goose Green: your questions answered
Do you cover Goose Green from London?
We cover Goose Green, about 27 miles from central London.
Do you cover small places like Goose Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always: sound material that will not be disturbed can often stay. Keep a record and check its condition.
How do I get a quote?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
What if my house is newer?
Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
Your options compared
A test before removal can save money: a clear result means normal methods. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
