Good to know

Here’s what Artex removal covers, and what it does not:

  • Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, which affects the start date
  • Plastering and making good are normally separate jobs
  • We need the room cleared

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

What we deal with

  • Coated plasterboard
  • Patched or painted coatings
  • Artex ceilings
  • Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
  • Swirl and stipple patterns
  • Textured walls

Common questions in Passfield

Do you cover Passfield from London?

Passfield is about 42 miles from central London, well within our area.

Is the Artex in my Passfield home asbestos?

Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Only a test will tell you.

What does licensed work mean?

Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally are not licensed.

What does it cost to remove Artex?

It depends on the area, the method and the waste, and we quote once the coating has been tested.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Clear photos and measurements are often enough; otherwise we’ll arrange a visit.

Does someone need to be there?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

Will I get the price in writing?

Always: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

You can’t tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

Step by step

We finish by cleaning the room thoroughly. At the end, we tell you what was done and what happens next.

  1. Describe the coatings and rooms
  2. We test the coating if it hasn’t been tested
  3. If it contains asbestos, we agree the method and quote
  4. The coating is removed with controls
  5. The room is cleaned and you get the paperwork

Getting ready

  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Keep the area clear of children and pets
  • Let us know where we can park

Your options compared

Strip the coating or take the boards down? Stripping keeps the ceiling; taking boards down whole can be quicker and cleaner in some rooms. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. We quote each job individually.

Why us?

  • London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and beyond
  • Work done to the regulations
  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Houses, flats and business premises

Materials we deal with

Coated plasterboard

Board removal avoids stripping.

Textured walls

Walls are treated like ceilings.

Responsibilities for owners

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

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
