Artex removal in North Cheam

Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. Testing a sample tells you, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. We often deal with textured walls, stipple finishes and Artex ceilings, and typical jobs are ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights and ceilings due for plastering or skimming.

Ceilings in North Cheam conversions can have more than one coating, so we test each coating. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, so you have a record.

North Cheam: your questions answered

Can you work in North Cheam with London’s parking rules?

We do. Let us know the parking situation and we will plan around it.

Do you work near West Sutton station?

Yes, we cover North Cheam and the area towards West Sutton station, about 0.8 miles south-east.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, though some need a visit first.

Can you help a business or landlord?

We do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.

Should all asbestos be removed?

No. Material in good condition that won’t be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.

Is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.

Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?

First, keep everyone away and do not clean it up. Then contact us and we will advise on the next step.

Can I do it myself?

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

Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.

Which option is right?

Skimming over Artex avoids disturbing it, but do not sand it smooth first, and the asbestos stays in the building. How easy the material is to reach affects the price, so photos of the area and the way in help us quote accurately.
