Artex removal near Knotty Green
Not every textured coating contains asbestos. Testing a sample tells you, so your plasterer can carry on if it’s clear. We often deal with swirl patterns, coated ceiling roses and Artex ceilings, and people normally contact us about ceilings before plastering and loft conversions.
In a village like Knotty Green, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Afterwards
If other rooms have textured coatings, record whether they’ve been tested, for future work.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Send photos of the coatings
- Keep the results and paperwork
- Empty the rooms in advance
- Each different coating needs testing
Don’ts
Don’t sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
What we deal with in Knotty Green
People used Artex to cover cracks and uneven ceilings, and some included a little chrysotile.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights
- Structural work through coated ceilings
- Walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit
- Ceilings before skimming
For a school such as St Mary and All Saints CofE Primary School, the duty holder’s records should show any coatings, before decorators start.
Before you book anyone
- Insurance appropriate to asbestos work
- How fibres will be kept down
- What category of work it is
- That samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory
Doing it yourself?
Found something mid-DIY? Stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
What it might be made of
Textured walls
Some walls were also given textured finishes.
Artex ceilings
Patterned ceilings are the classic example.
Knotty Green questions
Do you come out to small villages like Knotty Green?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you cover Knotty Green from London?
Knotty Green is about 26 miles from central London, well within our area.
How much does Artex removal cost in Knotty Green?
Room sizes, the method and the waste decide, so we quote after testing.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: shut the door if you can and don’t sweep it up. Then get in touch and we will advise.
Should I take the ceiling down instead?
Either can work: the right choice depends on the room. We will recommend one for each room.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
