Common reasons for Artex jobs in Tadworth
Renovations disturb coatings: sanding to smooth a ceiling, scraping it off dry or drilling for lights.
Get advice if you’re dealing with any of these:
- Ceilings before downlights go in
- Coatings scraped during DIY
- Ceilings before plastering
- Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
Non-domestic buildings like Tadworth Primary School should already have records of any textured coatings.

Other services in Tadworth
Can I do it myself?
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.
Your questions about Artex removal in Tadworth
Do older homes in Tadworth have asbestos?
It depends on its age and history: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Tadworth can contain it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Is the Artex in my Tadworth home asbestos?
Some older coatings do, and many don’t. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
Does weather affect the work?
Indoor jobs go ahead in any weather. Outdoor roof work can be delayed by strong wind or heavy rain.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone has to let us into all the areas in the job, and it helps if you are around to answer questions.
Should all asbestos be removed?
Not always. Sound material that will not be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Is asbestos dangerous?
Asbestos fibres can cause serious lung diseases years after exposure. The risk comes mainly from disturbing materials that contain it, so identifying it before work is important.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Tell us about the property and what you need.
