Artex removal for North Charford

Artex removal in North Charford

Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. Testing a sample tells you, so your plasterer can carry on if it’s clear. Whether it’s landlord refurbishments and coatings scraped during DIY, we cover swirl patterns, stipple finishes and Artex ceilings and more.

Village homes like those in North Charford have often been altered several times, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

After the job

Tell your plasterer and electrician what was done.

Looking after any asbestos that remains:

  • Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
  • Each different coating needs testing
  • Plan where you will stay or work while rooms are closed off
  • File the test result and waste note

Things not to do

Keep away from flaking or fallen coating and ask for advice.

Hold off on drilling until you have a result.

How it works

Our team wears protective equipment, and keep the room closed while we work. While we work, the area stays out of bounds, so arrange for pets and children to be elsewhere.

  1. Tell us where the textured ceilings and walls are
  2. We sample each different coating for testing
  3. If asbestos is found, we explain the options and quote
  4. We seal off each room and remove the coating wet, or take the boards down whole
  5. We clean up and send the waste paperwork

Getting ready

  • Clear the way to the work area
  • Move things out of the way carefully
  • Let us know if something’s broken

Can I do it myself?

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

A closer look at the materials

Coated plasterboard

Board removal avoids stripping.

Artex ceilings

Patterned ceilings are the classic example.

Where asbestos turns up

Renovations disturb coatings: sanding, dry scraping or drilling.

Typical jobs in North Charford include:

  • Coatings damaged by leaks
  • Structural work through coated ceilings
  • Walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit
  • Loft conversions and extensions

If your home is one of the older properties in North Charford, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere, textured ceilings may date from an earlier renovation.

Choosing an asbestos contractor

North Charford questions

Do older homes in North Charford have asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you come out to small villages like North Charford?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

How dangerous is asbestos?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. The related diseases often take decades to develop, which is why it’s identified before work.

Is my textured ceiling in North Charford asbestos?

Not every coating does: many coatings are asbestos-free. Testing a sample is how you find out.

Is it OK to scrape off Artex?

Not before testing. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.

Does someone need to be there?

Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, especially in buildings from before 2000.

Your options compared

A low price may mean shortcuts. Ask how the coating will be removed and where the waste goes. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.
