Artex removal near Wheeler End
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 a kitchen or bathroom refit and coatings damaged by leaks, we deal with stipple finishes, swirl patterns and coated plasterboard.
In areas like Wheeler End, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Paperwork is part of every job, which is useful when you sell, let or build.

Can I do it myself?
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, as well as an asbestos risk, so stay off it.
DIY sampling means disturbing the material yourself. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
For landlords, agents and businesses
Duty holders for workplaces and the shared parts of flats in Wheeler End must manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. In practice: find it, assess it, record it and manage it.
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
FAQs for Wheeler End
Do you come out to small villages like Wheeler End?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about access and parking.
Do you cover Wheeler End and the area around Saunderton station?

Does weather affect the work?
It depends on the job: indoor jobs are not affected, but outdoor removal may be rescheduled for safety.
Can I stay at home while you work?
The work room is sealed and kept clear. You may be able to use the rest of the house.
Can I plaster over Artex that contains asbestos?
Covering it is an option if it’s intact, but never sand it first, and keep a record.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
It depends on what we do: a survey report, a laboratory result, or a consignment note for removed waste.
Does all Artex contain asbestos?
Not necessarily, as many don’t. The only way to know is to test a sample.
Does asbestos always have to come out?
Not necessarily. Sound material that won’t be touched can often stay, as long as it’s recorded.
