Common reasons for Artex jobs in Hound Green
Asbestos-free coatings were also made, so a textured ceiling is not automatically asbestos.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Textured walls before a refit
- Ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights
- Coatings damaged by leaks
- Structural work through coated ceilings
For rented flats close to Hook station, coatings can be tested while the flat is empty.

Duty holders and landlords in Hound Green

If your business premises in Hound Green were built before 2000, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Questions from Hound Green
Do textured ceilings in Hound Green homes contain asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Only a test will tell you.
Do you work near Hook station?
Yes. Hook station is about 3.2 miles south of Hound Green, and we cover both.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
How much does Artex removal cost in Hound Green?
It depends on the area, the method and the waste, and we quote once the coating has been tested.

If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area involved in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.
