Artex removal near Warnford
Artex and similar coatings are common on ceilings in Warnford, and those applied before 2000 can contain a small amount of asbestos. We test first, then remove the coating with controlled wet methods if needed. Whether it’s ceilings due for plastering or skimming and ceilings coming down, we deal with textured walls, coated ceiling roses and swirl patterns and more.
Village homes like those in Warnford have often been altered several times, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. Clear answers come first: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Materials, one by one
Painted coatings
Paint often hides the coating, which doesn’t change what’s underneath.
Ceiling roses and cornices
Decorative mouldings are sometimes coated too.
What’s included, and what is not
What’s in and what’s out:
- Untested coatings are tested first, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
- Big jobs need notifying in advance, which affects the start date
- Plastering and making good are normally separate jobs

Choosing the right option

Doing it yourself?
Sanding, drilling, cutting and jet-washing are the worst things you can do to asbestos materials.
