In areas like Mill Lane, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Everything is explained in plain English, including when leaving a material alone is the sensible choice.

Doing it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Artex ceilings
A small sample from each different coating tells you whether it contains asbestos.
Where asbestos turns up
Asbestos-free coatings were also made, so testing is the only way to know.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to Artex jobs:
