Artex removal in Stonebridge
Removing an asbestos textured coating means sealing off the room, keeping the coating wet and never sanding or scraping it dry. Whether it’s walls before tiling and extensions that cut into ceilings, we deal with coated ceiling roses, textured walls and swirl patterns and more.
In flats and houses around Stonebridge, textured ceilings often turn up during renovation, sometimes hidden under later layers of paint. We work to HSE guidance on every job, large or small.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
Common questions in Stonebridge
Do you work in Stonebridge despite London parking restrictions?
We do. Let us know the parking situation and we’ll plan around it.
Do textured ceilings in Stonebridge homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.
What if the weather’s bad?
That depends: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: skips and household bins can’t take asbestos. It has to go to a site that accepts it, with the right paperwork.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to every area in the job.
Will I get the price in writing?
Yes, always.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and don’t sweep or vacuum up debris. Then get advice.
How much does Artex removal cost in Stonebridge?
It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote once we know what it contains.

Typical Artex jobs in Stonebridge
Textured coatings were popular for decades because they hid cracks and uneven plaster, and some included a little chrysotile.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:
- Structural work through coated ceilings
- Walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit
- Coatings scraped during DIY
- Loft conversions
Non-domestic buildings like The Stonebridge School should already have records of any textured coatings, before decorators start.

Materials we deal with
Textured walls
Walls are treated like ceilings.
Artex ceilings
A small sample from each different coating tells you whether it contains asbestos.
Can I do it myself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE recommends a competent person takes samples.
Which option is right?
Testing first can save a lot: if the coating is clear, ordinary methods can be used. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.
