Asbestos help in West Clandon

Artex removal near West Clandon

Taking down the plasterboard can be easier than stripping the coating. We will talk you through the options for your rooms in West Clandon. Typical jobs include loft conversions and extensions and rented homes refurbished between tenants, involving swirl patterns, coated plasterboard and textured walls.

Rural homes near West Clandon have often been altered over generations, so ceilings may have been coated during an earlier renovation. We start with a clear answer: what the material is, and what that means for your plans.

Which option is right?

Strip the coating or take the boards down? Stripping keeps the ceiling; taking boards down whole can be quicker and cleaner in some rooms. Doing several things in one visit can help, for example testing several materials, or removing a garage roof and a flue at the same time.

FAQs for West Clandon

Do you work on properties in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, the same rules apply there, but access to farm and rural buildings can take planning.

Do you cover small places like West Clandon?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Just tell us how to reach the property.

Can you help a business or landlord?

We do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.

Do you need to see it before quoting?

Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.

Does weather affect the work?

Indoor work is not affected. Outdoor removal may be postponed in strong wind or heavy rain, for safety.

Can I put asbestos in a skip?

Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.

What does it cost to remove Artex?

It depends on the area, the method and the waste, and we quote once the coating has been tested.

How do I know if my property contains asbestos?

Any building built or refurbished before 2000 can contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

What we do and do not cover

So you know what to expect:

  • The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
  • Other asbestos materials found in the room are dealt with separately
  • Plastering and making good are generally separate jobs

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

Common materials

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

Service details

Afterwards

After removal, the room is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site, with a consignment note.

A few practical points:

  • Book your plasterer after removal
  • File the test result and waste note
  • Photos help us quote
  • Plan where you will stay or work while rooms are closed off

What to avoid

Plan testing before the renovation starts.

Don’t drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.

How it works

Our team wears protective equipment, and the room stays closed. It helps if we can park nearby, so let us know about any restrictions.

  1. Get in touch with photos
  2. We arrange testing
  3. We talk through the options
  4. We carry out the removal
  5. We dispose of the waste legally

Before we arrive

  • Let us know where we can park
  • Move belongings away from the area, without touching the material
  • Tell neighbours if the work is close to their property

What we deal with in West Clandon

Most problems come during renovation: sanding, dry scraping or drilling releases fibres.

If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting advice:

  • Coatings in the way of electrical work
  • Loft conversions
  • Walls before tiling
  • Coatings scraped during DIY

Non-domestic buildings like Clandon CofE Aided Primary School should already have records of any textured coatings.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the work is licensed, notifiable non-licensed or non-licensed
  • What paperwork you get
  • How fibres will be kept down
  • If the price includes VAT
