Artex removal for Snow Hill
Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Artex removal in Snow Hill
Sometimes it’s simpler to take the ceiling boards down whole than to strip the coating. We will talk you through the options for your rooms in Snow Hill. We often deal with stipple finishes, coated ceiling roses and textured walls, and typical jobs are ceilings due to be knocked through or removed and textured walls before a refit.
In places like Snow Hill, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

After the job
Share the paperwork with your trades.
Keeping things safe:
- File the test result and waste note
- Test every different coating
- Photos help us quote
- Clear the rooms before the work
Things not to do
Don’t drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.
Keep away from flaking or fallen coating.
Which option is right?
Strip the coating or take the boards down? Stripping keeps the ceiling; taking boards down whole can be quicker and cleaner in some rooms. Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, such as testing several materials at once.

Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
FAQs for Snow Hill
Do you come out to small villages like Snow Hill?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
How far is Snow Hill from London?
We cover Snow Hill, about 25 miles from central London.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: asbestos waste is hazardous and can’t go in skips, bins or recycling. It must go to a permitted site.
Which asbestos work needs a licence?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally aren’t licensed.
Will I get the price in writing?
Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.
Could my home contain asbestos?
If it was built or refurbished before 2000, it may. Only laboratory analysis of a sample can confirm it.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We will identify it and advise on removal.
