Artex removal in Kimpton

Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. Testing a sample tells you, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. From ceilings due for plastering or skimming and flaking textured ceilings, we deal with coated plasterboard, stipple finishes and swirl patterns and more.

Village homes like those in Kimpton have often been altered several times, so coatings may date from earlier work. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Responsibilities for owners

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before anyone carries out repairs.

Limits to be aware of

What’s in and what’s out:

  • We leave the surface ready for your plasterer
  • Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
  • We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything

Common questions in Kimpton

Do you cover small places like Kimpton?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Do you work near Grateley station?

Yes. Grateley station is about 3.9 miles south of Kimpton, and we cover both.

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.

Is Artex removal licensed work?

Normally not, according to HSE. Larger-scale removal using steam or gel is notifiable non-licensed work.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

Stop work in that area and keep people out, then have the material identified before anything else happens.

Do you work in Kimpton?

Yes, Kimpton is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.

Does all Artex contain asbestos?

Not necessarily, as many don’t. The only way to know is to test a sample.

How we price Artex removal

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • Location, parking and any London charges
  • The size of the job
  • Licensed or non-licensed
  • Access to the area

A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

What to photograph

Helpful photos:

  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • The parking area
  • Approximate dimensions
  • Damaged areas

For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you are planning. Ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.

Which option is right?

  • Plan around the closed rooms
  • Keep pets away
  • Keep the results and paperwork

Don’ts

Keep away from flaking or fallen coating.

  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
