We remove textured coatings from ceilings, walls, ceiling roses and coated boards, across Goose Green. Typical jobs include walls before tiling and ceilings due to be knocked through or removed, involving Artex ceilings, textured walls and stipple finishes.
Village homes like those in Goose Green have often been altered several times, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Questions from Goose Green
Can you deal with asbestos on rural buildings in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
Do you cover Goose Green and the area around Billingshurst station?
Yes, we cover Goose Green and the area towards Billingshurst station, about 4.6 miles north-west.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE treats textured coating work as normally non-licensed, but larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified first.
Is it OK to scrape off Artex?
Not before testing. If it contains asbestos, sanding releases fibres.
Can you help with a shop or office?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Does someone need to be there?
We need access to every area involved in the job.
How much does Artex removal cost in Goose Green?
It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote after testing.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
What affects the price in Goose Green
Prices vary with:
- How much there is
- What the material is and its state
- Parking and access charges
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
Doing several things in one visit can help, such as testing several materials at once.
Sending photos
Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:
- A clear close-up
- An idea of size
- A photo of the whole area
- The access route
Share the postcode, a short description and photos: call 07833 053 749 or use our quote form, and we will reply with a quote.
Can I do it myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Which option is right?
You will find DIY products for removing Artex, but if the coating contains asbestos, HSE guidance applies. Test first. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.
Why choose us
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Clear written quotes
- Work done to the regulations
- Clear advice on your options

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
- Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
- Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
- Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
- Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
