Artex removal in Iver
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. Typical jobs include ceilings due to be knocked through or removed and extensions that cut into ceilings, including coated plasterboard, swirl patterns and stipple finishes.
In a village like Iver, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

FAQs for Iver
Is asbestos common in Iver homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Iver can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Iver from London?
Iver is about 18 miles from central London, well within our area.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then ask for advice.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, with the seller’s permission.
How do I get a quote?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Do you give written quotes?
Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
