Artex removal for Stadhampton properties

Taking down the plasterboard can be easier than stripping the coating. We will talk you through the options for your rooms in Stadhampton. Common materials are coated plasterboard, coated ceiling roses and Artex ceilings, and people usually contact us about extensions that cut into ceilings and coatings scraped during DIY.

In areas like Stadhampton, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Nothing is added to the job that you don’t need.

Limits to be aware of

It’s worth knowing what Artex removal does and does not cover:

  • We leave the surface ready for your plasterer
  • Big jobs need notifying in advance, which affects the start date
  • Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately

If in doubt, ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal.

Common materials

  • Swirl and stipple patterns
  • Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
  • Textured walls
  • Artex ceilings
  • Coated plasterboard
  • Patched or painted coatings

More about this service

For businesses and landlords in Stadhampton

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or a survey gives everyone a clear answer.

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

The process

Our team wears protective equipment, and the room stays closed. If anything unexpected turns up, we stop and talk to you.

  1. Get in touch with photos
  2. We test a sample of each coating
  3. We talk through the options
  4. We carry out the removal
  5. We dispose of the waste legally

Preparing for the visit

  • Move things out of the way carefully
  • Do not disturb the material before we get there
  • Warn neighbours if needed

Your options compared

What are the options for Artex? Intact coatings with no work planned can often stay; for smooth ceilings or work through the ceiling, removal is generally best. Every quote says whether VAT is included, so you can compare like with like.

What you get

  • Accredited laboratory results
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Paperwork you can show your buyer, landlord or builder
  • Plain-English advice, including when to leave things alone

See our prices page and our cost guide.

Doing it yourself?

If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, don’t sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.

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 Stadhampton

Is asbestos common in Stadhampton homes?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you come out to small villages like Stadhampton?

We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Can I stay at home while you work?

Generally you can use other rooms: the work room is closed off until it’s finished.

How do I get a quote?

Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, as long as the seller agrees.

How much does Artex removal cost in Stadhampton?

Room size, method and waste all affect the price. We quote after testing.

Do you need a licence to remove Artex?

HSE’s code of practice says it will not normally be licensable. Larger-scale removal using steam or gel is notifiable non-licensed work.

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.

After we have finished in Stadhampton

File the result and the paperwork.

After we have finished:

  • Photos help us quote
  • Each different coating needs testing
  • Give us room sizes
  • Line up the plasterer for afterwards

Avoid these

Keep away from flaking or fallen coating.

Do not use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.
