How artex removal works in Lower Froyle

We remove textured coatings from ceilings, walls, ceiling roses and coated boards, in houses, flats and commercial premises across Lower Froyle. Typical materials include Artex ceilings, swirl patterns and textured walls, and typical jobs are coatings damaged by leaks and coatings scraped during DIY.

In a village like Lower Froyle, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Helpful guides

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Lower Froyle must manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.

FAQs for Lower Froyle

Is asbestos common in Lower Froyle homes?

It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Lower Froyle can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you cover Lower Froyle from London?

Lower Froyle is about 41 miles from central London, well within our area.

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included, including whether VAT is included.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.

What if the weather’s bad?

That depends: indoor work carries on, while outdoor roof work may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain.

We do: Lower Froyle is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos for a quote.

Do I get anything in writing afterwards?

A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
