What we do and do not cover
Some limits to bear in mind:
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- Plastering and making good are generally separate jobs
- Untested coatings are tested first, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we will advise before booking.
What we deal with
- Coated plasterboard
- Artex ceilings
- Patched or painted coatings
- Textured walls
- Swirl and stipple patterns
- Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
After we have finished in Netley
The ceiling or wall is left ready for your plasterer.
To avoid problems in future:
- Send photos of the coatings
- File the test result and waste note
- Clear the rooms before the work
- Give us room sizes
Things not to do
Don’t try DIY removal products on untested coatings.
Don’t use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
Can I do it myself?
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Duty holders and landlords in Netley
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should know what the roofs are made of, before repairs are arranged.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Your questions about Artex removal in Netley
Is the Artex in my Netley home asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Do you cover Netley from London?
We cover Netley, about 69 miles from central London.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we will arrange to see it.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and don’t clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.
Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?
It’s an option for an intact coating: skimming or boarding over avoids disturbing it. Do not sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.
How can I get a price?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Do you cover Netley?
Yes. We cover Netley and the surrounding area as part of Hampshire. Send us the postcode for a quote.
Is my textured ceiling in Netley asbestos?
Not necessarily: plenty of textured coatings contain no asbestos. Testing a sample is how you find out.
