How artex removal works in Stonestreet Green
Textured coatings like Artex were used on ceilings and walls for decades, and older ones can contain a little asbestos. We test first, then remove the coating with controlled wet methods if needed. Whether it’s ceilings coming down and loft conversions, we deal with swirl patterns, coated plasterboard and textured walls.
In a village like Stonestreet Green, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike, often added during past renovations. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

FAQs for Stonestreet Green
Do you cover Stonestreet Green and the area around Westenhanger station?
Yes. Westenhanger station is about 4 miles east of Stonestreet Green, and we cover both.
Do textured ceilings in Stonestreet Green homes contain asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many do not. Only a test will tell you.
What does licensed work mean?
Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
Can you help with a shop or office?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
Is it OK to scrape off Artex?
Only once you know it’s clear. Sanding or dry scraping an asbestos coating releases fibres.
Can I just skim over it?
Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but don’t sand it first, and record that it’s there.
Do you cover Stonestreet Green?
We do: Stonestreet Green is within the area we cover in Kent. Share the postcode and a short description and we will quote.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. Keep a record and check its condition.
