About our artex removal in Kingsland
For an asbestos coating, the room is sealed, the coating kept wet and nothing sanded or dry-scraped. Typical materials include coated ceiling roses, Artex ceilings and textured walls, and typical jobs are loft conversions and landlord refurbishments.
In London conversions like those in Kingsland, one ceiling may have several coatings from different decades, so each may need testing. Clear answers come first: is it asbestos, and what should you do about it.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Kingsland must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

Common questions in Kingsland
Do you cover Kingsland and the area around Dalston Junction station?
Yes. Dalston Junction station is close to the centre of Kingsland, and we cover the whole area.
Is the Artex in my Kingsland home asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then contact us for advice on the next step.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
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.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
