Artex removal for Weyhill properties

Not every textured coating contains asbestos. Testing a sample tells you, so work can go ahead normally if it’s negative. People often contact us about damaged or cracked coatings and ceilings due to be knocked through or removed, involving textured walls, coated ceiling roses and Artex ceilings.

Rural homes near Weyhill have often been altered over generations, so coatings may date from earlier work. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, with the same attention to the regulations.

Weyhill questions

Do you come out to small villages like Weyhill?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.

Do you cover Weyhill from London?

Weyhill is about 66 miles from central London, well within our area.

What if my house is newer?

Homes built after 2000 shouldn’t contain asbestos, as it was banned in 1999, though older parts, reused materials or earlier outbuildings can.

Could my home contain asbestos?

You cannot tell by eye. A sample analysed in a laboratory is the reliable way to find out, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

Do you work in flats?

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

My builder has found asbestos. What now?

The builder should stop and close off the area. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.

Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?

It’s an option for an intact coating: covering it leaves it undisturbed. Do not sand it first, and keep a record that it’s there.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.

Should you do it yourself?

Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.

Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It has to go to a site that accepts it, and some councils accept small amounts from residents by arrangement.

For businesses and landlords in Weyhill

If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Weyhill, you have a duty to manage asbestos under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.

Letting agents often ask about asbestos before maintenance work. A test or survey gives a definite answer.
