How artex removal works in Tylers Green

Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but the asbestos is still there and should be recorded for future work. From walls before tiling and ceilings coming down, we deal with swirl patterns, stipple finishes and coated ceiling roses and more.

In a smaller place like Tylers Green, textured ceilings often show up when people renovate older family homes, and testing comes first. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so you know where you stand.

Responsibilities for owners

Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Tylers Green must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

Common questions in Tylers Green

Do you work near High Wycombe station?

Yes, we cover Tylers Green and the area towards High Wycombe station, about 2 miles south-west.

Could my house in Tylers Green contain asbestos?

That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Tylers Green can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Will I get the price in writing?

Always: you get the scope and price in writing.

What paperwork will I get?

Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.

Can I sand my Artex ceiling smooth?

Not until it’s been tested. If it contains asbestos, sanding or dry scraping releases fibres.

Can you help with a flat?

Yes. For the shared areas of a block, the managing agent or freeholder holds the asbestos information.

Is it better to remove the coating or the ceiling?

Either can work: the right choice depends on the room. We will advise room by room.

Can I just skim over it?

Skimming or boarding over an intact coating avoids disturbing it, but never sand it first, and keep a record.

How we work

We bag and label the waste as we work, then taken to a permitted site. Before we leave, we explain what we did and what comes next.

  1. Describe the rooms and coatings
  2. We sample the coating first
  3. If it contains asbestos, we agree the method and send a quote
  4. The room is sealed off and the coating removed wet, never sanded or dry-scraped
  5. We clean up and dispose of the waste legally

Before we arrive

  • Leave the suspect material alone until we arrive
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Dig out previous surveys

Limits to be aware of

Here’s what Artex removal covers, and what it doesn’t:

  • Untested coatings are tested first, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
  • Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
  • Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, so allow time

Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Common materials

  • Artex ceilings
  • Textured walls
  • Swirl and stipple patterns
  • Coated plasterboard
  • Ceiling roses and cornices (coated)
  • Patched or painted coatings

Where asbestos turns up

Older coatings are often painted over many times, so age is hard to judge.

Asbestos can be in a lot of places in buildings from before 2000. Common situations include:

  • Damaged or cracked coatings
  • Ceilings coming down
  • Ceilings before plastering
  • Rented homes refurbished between tenants

A school like Manor Farm Community Infant School should know from its asbestos register whether coatings have been tested.

What to look for in a quote

  • Where the waste goes, with paperwork
  • Which laboratory analyses samples
  • Whether VAT is included
  • The documents you’ll receive

What to check before booking

Materials we deal with

Coated plasterboard

Board removal avoids stripping.

Patched areas

Different areas may need separate samples.

Looking after things afterwards

Tell your plasterer and electrician what was done.

After we’ve finished:

  • Test every different coating
  • Line up the plasterer for afterwards
  • Photos help us quote
  • Plan around the closed rooms

Things not to do

Don’t sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.

Keep away from flaking or fallen coating and ask for advice.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors in the price are:

  • Parking and access charges
  • How much waste there is
  • The number of samples or the size of the building
  • Material and condition

Access makes a big difference to cost, so tell us about access.

Sending photos

The most useful photos are:

  • Visible markings
  • A rough size or measurement
  • The parking area
  • Cracks or breaks

Photos taken from a safe distance are fine: send them through our contact page.

Can I do it myself?

HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Done to the regulations: HSE guidance and CAR 2012
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Waste sealed and labelled, then taken to a permitted site
