About our artex removal in Russell's Green
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but the asbestos remains and needs recording. Whether it’s ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights and walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit, we cover coated ceiling roses, coated plasterboard and swirl patterns and more.
Village homes like those in Russell's Green have often been altered several times, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. We explain what we find in plain English, including when it’s better to leave a material in place.

Some practical advice:
- Plan around the closed rooms
- Give us room sizes
- Photos help us quote
- Each different coating needs testing
Avoid these
If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces and ask for advice.
Do not drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.
Common reasons for Artex jobs in Russell's Green
Textured coatings continued to be made after asbestos was taken out of them, so a textured ceiling is not automatically asbestos.
These are some of the things we deal with in Russell's Green:
- Coatings scraped during DIY

Russell's Green questions
How far is Russell's Green from London?
Russell's Green is about 48 miles from central London, well within our area.
Is asbestos common in Russell's Green homes?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Russell's Green can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do, alongside homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?
Not before testing. If it contains asbestos, sanding or dry scraping releases fibres.
Do you work in Russell's Green?
Yes, Russell's Green is in our area. Send us the postcode for a quote.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
Work in that area should stop, and the material needs identifying before work resumes.
Can you help with a flat?
We do. In a block, the shared areas are the responsibility of the managing agent or freeholder, who should hold the asbestos register.
What it might be made of
Textured walls
Walls can have textured coatings too.
Artex ceilings
A small sample from each different coating tells you whether it contains asbestos.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.
DIY and asbestos
With a professional job, you get a record: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
