Artex removal near West Green

According to HSE, textured coating work is normally non-licensed. Bigger jobs using steam or gel must be notified before they start. We often deal with coated ceiling roses, Artex ceilings and swirl patterns, and typical jobs are ceilings due to be knocked through or removed and coatings in the way of electrical work.

In a village like West Green, textured coatings turn up in cottages and later homes alike, often added during past renovations. Every job ends with paperwork: a report, results or a consignment note, so you have a record.

Can I do it myself?

Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.

A professional job comes with paperwork: a record that buyers, insurers and builders may want to see.

What it might be made of

Ceiling roses and cornices

Decorative mouldings are sometimes coated too.

Textured walls

Walls are treated like ceilings.

West Green questions

Do you cover West Green from London?

West Green is about 38 miles from central London, well within our area.

Do you work near Winchfield station?

Yes. Winchfield station is about 1.3 miles south-east of West Green, and we cover both.

Can you help a business or landlord?

Yes: homeowners, landlords, managing agents, businesses and contractors. Send the details.

Do I need to move out during Artex removal?

The work room is sealed and kept clear. You may be able to use the rest of the house.

Which asbestos work needs a licence?

Higher-risk materials need an HSE-licensed contractor. Cement and textured coatings generally aren’t licensed.

How dangerous is asbestos?

It can be, if fibres are released and breathed in. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, so the aim is never to disturb it unknowingly.

Do you give written quotes?

Every time: you get the scope and price in writing, and whether VAT is included.

Can you help with a shop or office?

Yes. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.

  • Parking and access charges
  • How much waste there is

Typical Artex jobs in West Green

Asbestos-free coatings were also made, so testing is the only way to know.

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

  • Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
  • Ceilings before skimming
  • Flaking textured ceilings
  • Loft conversions

Non-domestic buildings like Greenfields Junior School should already have records of any textured coatings.

What to look for in a quote

  • The documents you will receive
  • The method and controls
  • Proof of an HSE licence where it’s needed
  • Whether they’re insured for asbestos work

What to check before booking

Your options compared

Strip the coating or take the boards down? Stripping keeps the ceiling; taking boards down whole can be quicker and cleaner in some rooms. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, because the material is clear.

What you get

  • Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
  • Homes, rented property and workplaces
  • Work done to the regulations
  • Quotes that spell out the scope

Read how we price jobs and our cost guide.

Limits to be aware of

We’re upfront about what’s included:

  • We test before removal, because a clear result means ordinary methods can be used
  • We leave the surface ready for your plasterer
  • We need the room cleared

If you’re unsure, describe the job and send photos, and we’ll advise.

Common materials

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

Duty holders and landlords in West Green

Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so whoever runs them has a duty to manage asbestos.

Before contractors start, they need to know about any asbestos. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Everything in writing: quotes, reports, results and waste notes
  • Asbestos waste double-bagged or wrapped and taken to a permitted site
