Artex removal near Sarisbury Green
Removing an asbestos textured coating means sealing off the room, keeping the coating wet and never sanding or scraping it dry. From landlord refurbishments and loft conversions, we deal with textured walls, coated plasterboard and swirl patterns.
In Sarisbury Green, textured coatings are often in several rooms, so test each different coating. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Where asbestos turns up
Renovations disturb coatings: sanding to smooth a ceiling, scraping it off dry or drilling for lights releases fibres.
In older properties, we often see:
- Flaking textured ceilings
- Textured walls before a refit
- Ceilings before downlights go in
- Coatings already disturbed
If you’re refurbishing a rental near Swanwick station, textured ceilings can be tested between tenancies.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
If you run a business from older premises in Sarisbury Green, you are likely to need an asbestos register and a management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
What happens next
The ceiling or wall is left ready for your plasterer.
Looking after any asbestos that remains:
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
- Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
- Keep the results and paperwork
- Each different coating needs testing
Avoid these
Don’t drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.
Test before the builders arrive.

Sarisbury Green questions
Is asbestos common in Sarisbury Green homes?
If your home in Sarisbury Green was built or refurbished before 2000, it may, but you can’t tell by looking. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Sarisbury Green and the area around Swanwick station?
Yes. Swanwick station is about 1.4 miles north-east of Sarisbury Green, and we cover both.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Normally not: HSE’s code of practice says textured coating work is not normally licensable, though large steam or gel jobs are notifiable.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
Can you help with a flat?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
Do you need to see it before quoting?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
