About our artex removal in North Mundham

Not every textured coating contains asbestos. A small sample tells you which you have, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. Typical jobs include loft conversions and structural work through coated ceilings, including swirl patterns, coated plasterboard and textured walls.

In areas like North Mundham, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

A closer look at the materials

Patched areas

Patches may be newer material.

Coated plasterboard

The coating sits on plasterboard or plaster. Sometimes it’s simpler to remove the boards whole.

What we do and don’t cover

Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:

  • We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
  • Plastering and making good are generally separate jobs
  • Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

FAQs for North Mundham

Could my house in North Mundham contain asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in North Mundham may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you work near Chichester station?

Yes, we cover North Mundham and the area towards Chichester station, about 1.6 miles north-west.

Is it better to remove the coating or the ceiling?

It depends on the room and the condition of the ceiling. We will explain the options.

Do you need a licence to remove Artex?

Normally not, according to HSE. Larger-scale removal using steam or gel is notifiable non-licensed work.

Will I get the price in writing?

Yes, always.

Is my textured ceiling in North Mundham asbestos?

Not necessarily: many textured coatings don’t contain asbestos. The only way to know is to test a sample.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Asbestos was banned in 1999, so buildings built after 2000 shouldn’t contain it, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.

Can you help with a shop or office?

We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need, and any existing asbestos register.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

DIY and asbestos

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.

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

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
