Need Artex removal in Lower Green?

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials, so avoid them completely.
About our artex removal in Lower Green
If your renovation in Lower Green involves textured ceilings, test them before rewiring, fitting downlights or plastering. From ceilings before skimming and coatings already disturbed, we cover coated plasterboard, swirl patterns and stipple finishes and more.
Village homes like those in Lower Green have often been altered several times, so coatings may date from earlier work. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

Lower Green: your questions answered
Do you work near Esher station?
Yes. Esher station is about 0.6 miles east of Lower Green, and we cover both.
Do you come out to small villages like Lower Green?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
What does it cost to remove Artex?
It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote after testing.
Is damaged asbestos an emergency?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
Generally you can use other rooms: the room being worked on is sealed off and kept clear.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No: asbestos waste is hazardous and cannot go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
Responsibilities for owners
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
For managing agents and freeholders in Lower Green, the asbestos register for common parts should be kept up to date and shared with contractors, and condition checked regularly.
Typical Artex jobs in Lower Green
Leaks and DIY can damage coatings, so they may start to flake.
These come up again and again:
- Ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights
- Walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit
- Landlord refurbishments
- Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
If you are refurbishing a rental near Esher station, coatings can be tested while the flat is empty.
