About our artex removal in Stoneleigh
Not every textured coating contains asbestos. A small sample tells you which you have, so your plasterer can carry on if it’s clear. Whether it’s coatings damaged by leaks and coatings damaged by DIY, we deal with coated plasterboard, stipple finishes and coated ceiling roses.
In Stoneleigh, textured coatings are often in several rooms, so each type needs testing. Every job comes with paperwork, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Common questions in Stoneleigh
Do you cover Stoneleigh and the area around Stoneleigh station?
Yes. Stoneleigh station is close to the centre of Stoneleigh, and we cover the whole area.
Do textured ceilings in Stoneleigh homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings do not contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.
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; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, which is why identifying it first matters.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
A survey report, laboratory results or a waste consignment note, depending on the job.
How do I get a quote?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material, with photos if possible. To do that, use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.
How much does Artex removal cost in Stoneleigh?
It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote once we know what it contains.
Do you need a licence to remove Artex?
HSE’s code of practice says it will not normally be licensable. Larger steam or gel jobs must be notified first.

Can I do it myself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
If you do find something during DIY, stop: keep people away, do not sweep or vacuum it up, and get advice.
What we do and don’t cover
Every job has limits; these are the usual ones:
- We need the room cleared
- Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
- We test before removal, since a negative result changes everything
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
