Artex removal for Haddenham
Artex removal for Haddenham properties
Covering an intact coating is one option, but the asbestos remains and needs recording. People often contact us about ceilings before skimming and ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights, involving textured walls, coated plasterboard and stipple finishes.
In a smaller place like Haddenham, textured ceilings often show up when people renovate older family homes, and testing comes first. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

For landlords, agents and businesses
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before anyone carries out repairs.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

We are upfront about what’s included:
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- Big jobs need notifying in advance, so allow time
- We test before removal, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

FAQs for Haddenham
Is asbestos common in Haddenham homes?
If your home in Haddenham was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but only a test can confirm it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is the Artex in my Haddenham home asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Can I stay at home while you work?
Typically you can use other rooms: the room being worked on is sealed off and kept clear.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings usually aren’t licensed.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
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.
