How to choose an asbestos contractor

Artex removal near Tyler's Hill

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 damaged or cracked coatings and ceilings due for plastering or skimming, we cover textured walls, Artex ceilings and stipple finishes and more.

In areas like Tyler's Hill, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, for your records.

Tyler's Hill questions

Do you cover Tyler's Hill and the area around Amersham station?

Yes. Amersham station is about 2.5 miles south-west of Tyler's Hill, and we cover both.

Do you cover small places like Tyler's Hill?

We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.

When can you start?

That depends on the work and current bookings. You will get available dates with the quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, but larger or unclear jobs may need a visit.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, and ask for advice; your GP can advise if you’re worried about your health.

Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?

Covering it is an option if it’s intact, but do not sand it first, and record that it’s there.

Should all asbestos be removed?

Not necessarily. If it’s in good condition and nobody will disturb it, leaving it in place and checking it can be the safer choice.

Do you give written quotes?

Yes, every quote is in writing and says what’s included.

How we price Artex removal

Our quotes take into account:

  • The category of work
  • Parking and access charges
  • The survey scope
  • Material and condition

Dealing with asbestos before building work is generally cheaper than finding it mid-job, when everything has to stop.

Photos that help

Good photos help us plan and quote. Take them without disturbing anything:

  • Damaged areas
  • Approximate dimensions
  • A wide shot showing where the material is
  • The parking area

Share the postcode, a short description and photos: use our quote form or call 07833 053 749, and we will reply with a quote.

Should you do it yourself?

DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.

HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Community buildings count as non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

If you manage or own a block in Tyler's Hill, the register for shared areas needs keeping current and sharing with trades, and condition checked regularly.

Materials we deal with

Artex ceilings

We test each different coating.

Coated plasterboard

Coatings are applied over plasterboard or plaster. Sometimes it’s simpler to remove the boards whole.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
