Artex removal in Moor Park

Responsibilities for owners

Landlords of garage blocks and outbuildings should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.

Artex removal near Moor Park

Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole than to strip the coating. We will explain which suits your rooms. From ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights and coatings damaged by DIY, we deal with textured walls, coated plasterboard and stipple finishes and more.

Ceilings in Moor Park conversions can have more than one coating, so each may need testing. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

The process

If we are taking the boards down instead, they’re removed whole where possible. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.

  1. Send photos of the textured surfaces
  2. We arrange testing
  3. We talk through the options
  4. We remove it safely if that’s what you choose
  5. The waste goes to a permitted site with a consignment note

Getting ready

  • Find any old asbestos reports
  • Keep away from the material in the meantime
  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone

  • Reports and results you can share
  • Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • We identify first and remove only what needs removing

Can I do it myself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

Questions from Moor Park

Is asbestos common in Moor Park homes?

Any home in Moor Park built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but you cannot tell by looking. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Is the Artex in my Moor Park home asbestos?

Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Is damaged asbestos an emergency?

Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.

How can I get a price?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.

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.

What it might be made of

Coated plasterboard

Board removal avoids stripping.

Patched areas

Patch repairs may use a different material from the original coating.

Typical Artex jobs in Moor Park

Most problems come during renovation: sanding, dry scraping or drilling.

Get advice if you are dealing with any of these:

  • Extensions that cut into ceilings
  • Rented homes refurbished between tenants
  • Ceilings before skimming
  • Coatings damaged by DIY

In older homes in Moor Park, textured ceilings were often added in later decades.

How we price Artex removal

Quotes vary because of:

  • What the material is and its state
  • Access to the area
  • How much there is
  • Travel and parking

Identifying asbestos early is cheaper than stopping work later, when everything has to stop.

Helping us quote

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them from a safe distance without touching the material:

  • The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
  • Visible markings
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • A clear close-up

Each job is priced individually. Send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749 to get started.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Test every different coating
  • Send photos of the coatings
  • Keep pets out of the work area

Avoid these

If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces and ask for advice.

  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
