Artex removal in Nuneham Courtenay
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. Typical materials include coated plasterboard, swirl patterns and stipple finishes, and typical jobs are coatings already disturbed and ceilings before skimming.
In a village like Nuneham Courtenay, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike, often added during past renovations. We only recommend work that’s needed, and we’ll say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

Nuneham Courtenay questions
Is the Artex in my Nuneham Courtenay home asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Only a test will tell you.
Do you cover Nuneham Courtenay from London?
Nuneham Courtenay is about 49 miles from central London, well within our area.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Will I get the price in writing?
Always: you get the scope and price in writing.
How do I get a quote?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.
When can you start?
It depends on the job and our diary. We will give you dates when we quote.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Nuneham Courtenay, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.
The process
The coating is softened with water, steam or gel and removed with hand tools, never sanded or scraped dry. When we are done, we explain what happens next and what paperwork follows.
- Send photos of the textured surfaces
- We arrange testing
- We explain your options: leave, cover or remove
- We carry out the removal
- We dispose of the waste legally
How to prepare
- Keep the area clear of children and pets
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Clear access to the area, loft or garage
Getting a price
Include any existing survey or test when you ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.

Good to know
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- Plastering and making good are normally separate jobs
- Big jobs need notifying in advance, which affects the start date
- We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal before booking.
