Artex removal near Stonebridge Park

Your questions about Artex removal in Stonebridge Park

Do you work in Stonebridge Park despite London parking restrictions?

We do. Tell us about parking, permits and access so we can plan; all of Greater London is inside the ULEZ.

Do older homes in Stonebridge Park have asbestos?

Any home in Stonebridge Park built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos, but only a test can confirm it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do you work on commercial premises?

We do, alongside homes. Non-domestic premises have a duty holder who should hold an asbestos register.

What’s the difference between a test and a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey inspects the whole building or work area and records everything it finds.

How quickly can you come out?

Dates are agreed once the quote is accepted. Some work has to be notified to the enforcing authority first, which affects timing.

What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?

Get everyone out of the area and keep it closed. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

Does asbestos always have to come out?

Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.

Choosing the right option

What are the options for Artex? Intact coatings with no work planned can often stay; if you want smooth ceilings or need to cut into it, removal is generally better. Very low prices can mean corners are being cut: proper controls, lab analysis and legal waste disposal cost money.

What you get

  • Covering London and the South East
  • Written quotes that say what’s included
  • Records for your files
  • Domestic and commercial work

What affects the price in Stonebridge Park

We base our quote on:

  • Whether the work is non-licensed, notifiable or licensed
  • Waste quantity and disposal
  • How much there is
  • How many samples are needed

Grouping jobs together can keep costs down, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

  • The parking area
  • Any damage, cracks or broken pieces
  • Any labels or markings, if you can see them safely

For landlords, agents and businesses

Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Materials, one by one

Patched areas

Patch repairs may use a different material from the original coating.

Artex ceilings

Swirl, stipple and other patterns on ceilings are the most common textured coatings.

Step by step

On the day, we seal off the room and protect floors and fittings, then keep the coating wet throughout. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next.

  1. Describe the coatings and rooms
  2. We test the coating if it hasn’t been tested
  3. If it contains asbestos, we agree the method and quote
  4. The coating is removed with controls
  5. The room is cleaned and you get the paperwork

Before we arrive

  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions
  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

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

Service details

Should you do it yourself?

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.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

Common reasons for Artex jobs in Stonebridge Park

Textured coatings continued to be made after asbestos was taken out of them, so a textured ceiling is not automatically asbestos.

In older properties, we often see:

  • Extensions that cut into ceilings
  • Rented homes refurbished between tenants
  • Ceilings due for plastering or skimming
  • Textured walls before a refit

A school like Our Lady of Lourdes RC Primary School should know from its asbestos register whether coatings have been tested.

What to look for in a quote

  • What category of work it is
  • What paperwork you get
  • How the work will be done, and the controls used
  • Which laboratory analyses samples

Read the checklist

  • Nothing removed blind: unknown materials are tested first
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
