Service details

Artex removal in Sarisbury

According to HSE, textured coating work is normally non-licensed. Larger-scale removal using steam or gel is notifiable non-licensed work. People often contact us about flaking textured ceilings and ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights, including stipple finishes, textured walls and swirl patterns.

In Sarisbury, textured coatings are often in several rooms, so each type needs testing. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so there are no surprises.

The process

We finish by cleaning the room thoroughly before the seals come down. We arrive at the agreed time, check the area and explain what we’ll do before we start.

  1. Tell us which rooms and surfaces
  2. We test the coating if it hasn’t been tested
  3. If it contains asbestos, we agree the method and quote
  4. We seal off the room and remove the coating wet
  5. The room is cleaned and you get the paperwork

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away on the day
  • Move things out of the way carefully
  • Let neighbours know if the work is near them

Helpful guides

Sarisbury: your questions answered

Do you cover Sarisbury from London?

Sarisbury is about 67 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you work near Swanwick station?

Yes, we cover Sarisbury and the area towards Swanwick station, about 0.7 miles east.

What paperwork will I get?

It depends on what we do: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

How do I get a quote?

Use our quote form or call 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.

Is my textured ceiling in Sarisbury asbestos?

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

When can you start?

We agree a date when you accept the quote. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is generally needed.

Can I do it myself?

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

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

Afterwards

File the result and the paperwork.

Once you know what’s there, a few simple habits help:

  • File the test result and waste note
  • Plan where you will stay or work while rooms are closed off
  • Test every different coating
  • Give us room sizes

Don’ts

Hold off on drilling until you have a result.
