Artex removal for Old Netley properties
Textured coatings like Artex were used on ceilings and walls for decades, and older ones can contain a little asbestos. We test the coating, then remove it safely if it contains asbestos. People often contact us about coatings in the way of electrical work and ceilings due to be knocked through or removed, involving coated ceiling roses, textured walls and coated plasterboard.
In places like Old Netley, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. You get written paperwork for every job: a report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, for your records.

Common questions in Old Netley
Do you cover Old Netley and the area around Bursledon station?
Yes. Bursledon station is about 1 mile south-east of Old Netley, and we cover both.
Do you come out to small villages like Old Netley?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do you cover Old Netley?
Yes, we do: Old Netley is within the area we cover in Hampshire. Send the postcode and a few photos and we’ll quote.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, although older materials can sometimes be reused or left in extensions.
When can you start?
Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is. To do that, ring 07833 053 749, or send the details through our contact page.
What affects the price in Old Netley
The price of Artex removal depends mainly on:
- Disposal costs
- Parking and access charges
- Material and condition
- The category of work
Sometimes a test shows removal is not needed, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
Photos that help
When you send photos, these help most:
- Cracks or breaks
- A wide shot showing where the material is
- Approximate dimensions
- Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely
Each job is priced individually. Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749 to get started.
Doing it yourself?
Asbestos waste can’t go in household bins, recycling or skips. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
After we have finished in Old Netley
File the result and the paperwork.
After the job, keep these in mind:
- Give us room sizes
- Plan where you’ll stay or work while rooms are closed off
- Test every different coating
- Keep pets away
Don’ts
Test before the builders arrive.
Do not drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.
