Artex removal for Haydon Hill
Artex removal for Haydon Hill properties
Left undisturbed, an intact textured coating is low risk. The problem comes when it’s sanded, scraped dry, drilled or knocked through during a renovation. Common materials are textured walls, coated ceiling roses and Artex ceilings, and people normally contact us about walls before tiling and rented homes refurbished between tenants.
In Haydon Hill, textured coatings are often in several rooms, so test each different coating. Work is planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance, whatever the size of the job.

Questions from Haydon Hill
Could my house in Haydon Hill contain asbestos?
Any home in Haydon Hill built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Haydon Hill and the area around Aylesbury Vale Parkway station?
Yes, we cover Haydon Hill and the area towards Aylesbury Vale Parkway station, about 0.7 miles north-west.
What does licensed work mean?
Licensed work is work on the materials most likely to release fibres: pipe lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board. Only a contractor holding an HSE licence can do it.
What does it cost to remove Artex?
It depends on the area, the method and the waste, so we quote after testing.
Can I just skim over it?
Covering it is an option if it’s intact, but never sand it first, and keep a record.
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.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Is my textured ceiling in Haydon Hill asbestos?
Not every coating does: plenty of textured coatings contain no asbestos. Testing a sample is how you find out.
Duty holders and landlords in Haydon Hill
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.
Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
What it costs
These are the main things that affect the price of Artex removal:
- How much waste there is
- Access: height, lofts, steps and space
- The number of samples or the size of the building
- Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
A price that looks too good to be true often is: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.
Sending photos
Photos often save us a visit:
- An overall view
- How we’d reach it
- Cracks or breaks
- Approximate dimensions
Photos from a safe distance help: send them through our contact page.
What we deal with in Haydon Hill
Many ceilings have years of paint on them, so age is hard to judge.
Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Typical situations are:
- Loft conversions and extensions
- Coatings damaged by leaks
- Ceilings coming down
- Walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit
For a school such as Thomas Hickman School, the duty holder’s records should show any coatings, before decorators start.
What your quote should include
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
- VAT, clearly stated
- How the work will be done, and the controls used
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
Good to know
It’s worth knowing what Artex removal does and does not cover:
- Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
- We need the room cleared
- Plastering and making good are usually separate jobs
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Swirl and stipple patterns
- Textured walls
- Coated plasterboard
- Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
- Artex ceilings
