Artex removal in Tattenham Corner
Covering an intact coating is one option, but the asbestos remains and needs recording. Common materials are coated ceiling roses, swirl patterns and textured walls, and typical jobs are ceilings due to be knocked through or removed and rented flats before redecoration.
Rural homes near Tattenham Corner have often been altered over generations, so coatings may date from earlier work. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Your questions about Artex removal in Tattenham Corner
Could my house in Tattenham Corner contain asbestos?
Homes built or refitted before 2000 can. The only way to know is to test suspect materials. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover Tattenham Corner from London?
Tattenham Corner is about 15 miles from central London, well within our area.
How do I know if my property contains asbestos?
Looking will not tell you. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.
I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?
Stop, keep people away from the area and do not sweep or vacuum up debris. Then ask for advice; if you’re worried about your health, speak to your GP.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Yes, a pre-purchase survey can help, as long as the seller agrees.
Does someone need to be there?
Someone needs to give us access to the areas involved, and to be available for questions.
Do I need a test or a survey?
Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. For building work, a survey is normally needed.

Typical Artex jobs in Tattenham Corner
