How artex removal works in Segensworth
Left undisturbed, an intact textured coating is low risk. The problem comes when it’s sanded, scraped dry, drilled or knocked through during a renovation, which is why testing first matters in Segensworth. Common materials are Artex ceilings, textured walls and coated ceiling roses, and people typically contact us about coatings damaged by DIY and loft conversions and extensions.
Village homes like those in Segensworth have often been altered several times, so coatings may date from earlier work. Every quote is in writing and spells out what’s covered, so you know where you stand.

A closer look at the materials
Patched areas
Patch repairs may use a different material from the original coating.
Artex ceilings
A small sample from each different coating tells you whether it contains asbestos.
Afterwards
If you’ve covered a coating rather than removed it, record where it is.
A few practical points:
- Keep pets away
- Photos help us quote
- Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
Don’ts
If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces.
Do not try DIY removal products on untested coatings.

How quickly can you come out?

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop work, leave the area and don’t try to clean up. Then get advice.
Do you work on commercial premises?
Yes: shops, offices, industrial units and community buildings as well as homes. The duty holder should be able to share the asbestos register.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Make the area safe first: close it off and do not clean it up yourself. Then get in touch and we will advise.
My builder has found asbestos. What now?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We’ll identify it and advise on removal.
Can you advise before I buy a property?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
Weighing up your options
Test, leave, cover or remove? Intact coatings with no work planned can often stay; if you want smooth ceilings or need to cut into it, removal is normally better. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: controls, protective equipment, laboratory fees and legal disposal all cost money.
How we work in Segensworth
