Artex removal near Niton
If your renovation in Niton involves textured ceilings, get them tested before electricians or plasterers start. People often contact us about loft conversions and ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights, including coated ceiling roses, swirl patterns and coated plasterboard.
Rural homes near Niton have often been altered over generations, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. We identify materials before planning removal, because the method depends on what the material is.

Niton: your questions answered
Is the Artex in my Niton home asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Only a test will tell you.
Do you cover small places like Niton?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off. You may be able to use the rest of the house.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.
Can I put asbestos in a skip?
No. Asbestos is hazardous waste and must go to a site that accepts it. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
What happens next
The ceiling or wall is left ready for your plasterer.
Once we’re done:
- Plan around the closed rooms
- Empty the rooms in advance
- Book your plasterer after removal
- Give us room sizes
Avoid these
Don’t use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
Test before the builders arrive.
What happens
The coating is softened with water, steam or gel and removed with hand tools, never sanded or scraped dry. We wear suitable protective equipment for the job, and use controls to keep dust down.
- Describe the rooms and coatings
- We sample the coating first
- We plan the method and quote
- We seal the room and remove the coating with wet methods
- The waste is bagged, the room cleaned and the waste taken to a permitted site
Getting ready
- Tell us about anything that is already damaged
- Make sure pets and children are elsewhere
- Dig out previous surveys

Materials we deal with
Textured walls
They’re tested and removed in the same way as ceilings.
Patched areas
Patches may be newer material.
Weighing up your options
Strip the coating or take the boards down? Stripping keeps the ceiling; taking boards down whole can be quicker and cleaner in some rooms. There’s no one-size price, as every job differs. Our cost guides show published ranges, with dates and sources.
What you get
- Across London and the South East
- Waste paperwork for every removal
- Identify first, remove only when needed
- Honest advice, even when the answer is to leave it
