About our artex removal in Nursted
Covering an intact coating is one option, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. People often contact us about ceilings due to be knocked through or removed and coatings damaged by leaks, involving textured walls, coated plasterboard and stipple finishes.
In a village like Nursted, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike, often added during past renovations. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

- Material and condition
The cost of Artex removal depends on the job: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.
Helping us quote
Photos help us understand the job before we visit. Take them without disturbing anything:
- Damaged areas
- A close-up from a safe distance
- A photo of the whole area
- The route in: gates, steps, stairs or the loft hatch
If you have a survey or test result, include it when you fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749; it helps us quote accurately.

Nursted: your questions answered
Do older homes in Nursted have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Nursted can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you work on properties in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. The asbestos rules are the same in protected landscapes, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.
How do I get a quote?
Just send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.
When can you start?
That depends on the work and current bookings. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us and we’ll advise on the next step.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing.
Weighing up your options
A test before removal can save money: a clear result means normal methods. When comparing quotes, check what’s included: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
Why us?

- Legal disposal, with paperwork
- Reports and results you can share
- Homes, rented property and workplaces

Responsibilities for owners
If you own a block of garages or outbuildings that you let should find out whether the roofs are asbestos cement, before repairs are arranged.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Afterwards
Tell your plasterer and electrician what was done.
Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:
- Test every different coating
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
- Plan where you will stay or work while rooms are closed off
- Keep pets away
Avoid these
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
Don’t drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.
DIY and asbestos
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. 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.
