How artex removal works in Temple Park
Removing an asbestos textured coating means sealing off the room, keeping the coating wet and never sanding or scraping it dry, with the waste bagged and taken to a permitted site. Whether it’s rented flats before redecoration and walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit, we cover swirl patterns, stipple finishes and coated plasterboard and more.
Homes in areas like Temple Park may have textured ceilings in several rooms, so test each different coating. Nothing is added to the job that you do not need, and we will say when the right answer is to leave something alone.

The scope of Artex removal
To be clear about the scope:
- Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
- Plastering and making good are generally separate jobs
- Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, which affects the start date

Why people call us in Temple Park
Textured coatings continued to be made after asbestos was taken out of them, so a textured ceiling isn’t automatically asbestos.
Buildings from before 2000 can hide asbestos in many places. Typical situations are:
- Coatings scraped during DIY
- Loft conversions and extensions
- Coatings in the way of electrical work
- Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
For a school such as Meadow Vale Primary School, the duty holder’s records should show any coatings.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, when rooms are empty and work can be done without disruption.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.

Should you do it yourself?
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so never climb onto one.

Temple Park: your questions answered
Do older homes in Temple Park have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Temple Park may have it. Look at garage roofs, textured ceilings, old floor tiles, soffits and flues.
Do you cover Temple Park and the area around Bracknell station?
Yes, we cover Temple Park and the area towards Bracknell station, about 1.2 miles south-east.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Send us the details of the premises.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Should I take the ceiling down instead?
Either can work: the right choice depends on the room. We’ll advise room by room.
How can I get a price?
Fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Include the postcode, a description and photos.
Will I get the price in writing?

Do I need to move out during Artex removal?
The work room is sealed and kept clear. Often you can stay in other rooms.
