Artex removal in Littlefield Green
Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. Testing a sample tells you, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. Typical jobs include coatings damaged by DIY and walls before tiling, involving coated plasterboard, textured walls and swirl patterns.
Rural homes near Littlefield Green have often been altered over generations, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

After the job

A few practical points:
- Each different coating needs testing
- Photos help us quote
- Keep pets away
- Empty the rooms in advance
Avoid these
Don’t use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
Do not try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
Choosing the right option
A low price may mean shortcuts, which releases fibres. Ask about the method and the waste. Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

Questions from Littlefield Green
Do textured ceilings in Littlefield Green homes contain asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many do not. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do older homes in Littlefield Green have asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then ask for advice.
What paperwork will I get?
It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE treats textured coating work as normally non-licensed, though large steam or gel jobs are notifiable.
