Artex removal for Redlands properties

According to HSE, textured coating work is normally non-licensed. Bigger jobs using steam or gel must be notified before they start. Typical materials include coated ceiling roses, Artex ceilings and coated plasterboard, and people typically contact us about walls before tiling and coatings damaged by DIY.

In a village like Redlands, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike, often added during past renovations. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Good to know

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

Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
Plastering and making good are generally separate jobs
Untested coatings are tested first, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used

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

Common questions in Redlands

Do older homes in Redlands have asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.

Do you work near Farnham station?

Yes, we cover Redlands and the area towards Farnham station, about 2.9 miles south-east.

How can I get a price?

Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. Then fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749.

When can you start?

It depends on the job and our diary. We’ll give you dates when we quote.

Does all Artex contain asbestos?

Not necessarily: many textured coatings don’t contain asbestos. A test will tell you.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not always: sound material that won’t be disturbed can often stay. It should be recorded and checked.

How much does Artex removal cost in Redlands?

It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote once we know what it contains.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

For businesses and landlords in Redlands

If you run a business from older premises in Redlands, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

What it might be made of

Coated plasterboard

Board removal avoids stripping.

Ceiling roses and cornices

Decorative mouldings are sometimes coated too.

DIY and asbestos

Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres.

Found something mid-DIY? Stop: leave the area, do not clean it up, and ask for advice.

Afterwards

Tell your plasterer and electrician what was done.

Some practical advice:

Give us room sizes
File the test result and waste note
Keep pets away
Clear the rooms before the work

Things not to do

If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces and ask for advice.
