About our artex removal in Hinton Waldrist
Covering an intact coating is one option, but the asbestos remains and needs recording. Typical materials include stipple finishes, Artex ceilings and textured walls, and typical jobs are extensions that cut into ceilings and ceilings before downlights go in.
In a village like Hinton Waldrist, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike, often added during past renovations. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Your questions about Artex removal in Hinton Waldrist
Is the Artex in my Hinton Waldrist home asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do you cover Hinton Waldrist from London?
We cover Hinton Waldrist, about 60 miles from central London.
Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Stop work in that area and keep people out, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Do you need a licence to remove Artex?
Typically not: HSE’s code of practice says textured coating work is not normally licensable, but larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified first.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice.

Should you do it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
