Artex removal in Hall's Green
We remove textured coatings from ceilings, walls, ceiling roses and coated boards, across Hall's Green. Typical materials include Artex ceilings, textured walls and stipple finishes, and people generally contact us about structural work through coated ceilings and coatings damaged by DIY.
Village homes like those in Hall's Green have often been altered several times, so coatings may date from earlier work. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

For businesses and landlords in Hall's Green
If your business premises in Hall's Green were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Materials we deal with
Ceiling roses and cornices
Decorative mouldings are sometimes coated too.
Textured walls
They’re tested and removed in the same way as ceilings.
Which option is right?
Plastering over it avoids disturbing it, but don’t sand it smooth first, and the asbestos stays in the building. The cost of Artex removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.

Questions from Hall's Green
Do textured ceilings in Hall's Green homes contain asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many do not. Only a test will tell you.
Do you cover Hall's Green and the area around Penshurst station?
Yes. Penshurst station is about 1.9 miles south of Hall's Green, and we cover both.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you give written quotes?
Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE treats textured coating work as normally non-licensed, though large steam or gel jobs are notifiable.
What paperwork will I get?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
The scope of Artex removal
It’s worth knowing what Artex removal does and doesn’t cover:
- We leave the surface ready for your plasterer
- Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, so allow time
- We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
If you are unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
Materials we see
- Swirl and stipple patterns
- Coated plasterboard
- Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
- Artex ceilings
