How artex removal works in Lissenden Gardens
Not every textured coating contains asbestos. Testing a sample tells you, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. From flaking textured ceilings and ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights, we deal with stipple finishes, Artex ceilings and textured walls.
In flats and houses around Lissenden Gardens, textured ceilings often turn up during renovation, sometimes hidden under later layers of paint. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Responsibilities for owners
If your business premises in Lissenden Gardens were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.
How it works
The coating is softened with water, steam or gel and removed with hand tools, with no sanding or dry scraping. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions.
- Tell us which rooms and surfaces, and roughly how big they are
- We test the coating if it hasn’t been tested
- If it contains asbestos, we agree the method and send a quote
- We seal the room and remove the coating with wet methods
- The waste is bagged, the room cleaned and the waste taken to a permitted site
Getting ready
- Make sure we can get to the area
- Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property
- Move things out of the way carefully
