Artex removal near Tutts Clump
If your renovation in Tutts Clump involves textured ceilings, get them tested before electricians or plasterers start. Typical jobs include landlord refurbishments and ceilings due for rewiring or new downlights, involving Artex ceilings, coated plasterboard and textured walls.
Rural homes near Tutts Clump have often been altered over generations, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

For businesses and landlords in Tutts Clump
Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.
Landlords of single homes do not have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but anyone working on the property still needs to know about asbestos.

Where asbestos turns up
Textured coatings continued to be made after asbestos was taken out of them, so testing is the only way to know.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to Artex jobs:
- Coatings damaged by DIY
- Ceilings before downlights go in
- Ceilings due for plastering or skimming

If you are refurbishing a rental near Aldermaston station, coatings can be tested while the flat is empty.
