Need Artex removal in Shreding Green?

Artex removal near Shreding Green

Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. A small sample tells you which you have, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. We often deal with swirl patterns, coated plasterboard and coated ceiling roses, and people typically contact us about coatings scraped during DIY and flaking textured ceilings.

Rural homes near Shreding Green have often been altered over generations, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. Paperwork is part of every job, because buyers, landlords and builders often ask for it.

We sample them if needed.

Artex ceilings

A small sample from each different coating tells you whether it contains asbestos.

Weighing up your options

Strip the coating or take the boards down? Stripping keeps the ceiling; taking boards down whole can be quicker and cleaner in some rooms. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

Doing it yourself?

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

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.

Questions from Shreding Green

Do textured ceilings in Shreding Green homes contain asbestos?

Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.

Do you cover Shreding Green from London?

We cover Shreding Green, about 19 miles from central London.

Is a home built after 2000 likely to contain asbestos?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Can you help with a flat?

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

Can I just skim over it?

It’s an option for an intact coating: covering it leaves it undisturbed. Do not sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.

What paperwork will I get?

That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.

Can I stay at home while you work?

The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off. You may be able to use the rest of the house.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to every area involved in the job.

For businesses and landlords in Shreding Green

Void periods are a good time for asbestos work, while the property is empty.

If you manage or own a block in Shreding Green, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.
