Artex removal for Wiggonholt properties

We often deal with coated plasterboard, textured walls and stipple finishes, and people generally contact us about coatings already disturbed and ceilings coming down.
In towns and villages like Wiggonholt, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we will recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

FAQs for Wiggonholt
Could my house in Wiggonholt contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Wiggonholt may have it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Do you cover small places like Wiggonholt?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work for landlords, managing agents, employers and contractors as well as homeowners.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Asbestos is a hazard when its fibres get into the air. Diseases linked to it, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis, can appear many years later, which is why it’s identified before work.
What does it cost to remove Artex?
It depends on the area, the number of rooms, the method and the waste. We quote after testing.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
Keep people away from damaged material and do not clean it up yourself. Then contact us for advice.
Does all Artex contain asbestos?
Not every coating does: plenty of textured coatings contain no asbestos. Testing a sample is how you find out.
Should I take the ceiling down instead?
Both work; it depends on the room. We will advise for each room.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE regularly reminds owners and trades of it.
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Wiggonholt, you have a duty to manage asbestos under regulation 4 of the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. That means finding it, assessing it, recording it and planning how to manage it.
What it costs
Prices vary with:
- Location, parking and any London charges
- The type of material and its condition
- Access to the area
- The size of the job
Compare what each quote includes, not just the total: the scope, the method, the waste and the paperwork.
Sending photos
Before you send photos, a few tips:
- A rough size or measurement
- Street parking nearby
- A clear close-up
- Labels, if any
For an accurate quote, tell us what you’ve found, where it is and what you are planning. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
What we deal with in Wiggonholt
Many ceilings have years of paint on them, so age is hard to judge.
You can’t tell by looking, but these are common reasons people contact us:
- Rented homes refurbished between tenants
- Ceilings before plastering
- Ceilings due to be knocked through or removed
- Loft conversions and extensions
If you’re refurbishing a rental near Pulborough station, a void period is a good time to deal with textured ceilings.
What your quote should include
- That licensed work will be done by an HSE-licensed contractor
- What you’ll receive afterwards: a report, results or waste paperwork
- How the waste will be disposed of, and whether you will get a consignment note
- Laboratory analysis by an accredited lab
Doing it yourself?
Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
HSE advises the public not to repair or remove asbestos themselves. Licensed materials are strictly for licensed contractors.
How we work
Our team wears protective equipment, and the room stays closed. On the day, we check the area and talk you through the plan first.
- Describe the rooms and coatings
- We sample the coating first
- We plan the method and quote
- The room is sealed off and the coating removed wet, never sanded or dry-scraped
- The waste is bagged, the room cleaned and the waste taken to a permitted site
Before we arrive
- Have any previous surveys or test results ready
- Let us know if something’s broken
- Let neighbours know if the work is near them

After the job
File the result and the paperwork.
Once we’re done:
- Each different coating needs testing
- Tell us which rooms and roughly how big they are
- Photos help us quote
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
What to avoid
Hold off on drilling until you have a result.
Don’t drill or cut into textured ceilings until you know what they contain.
Good to know
What’s in and what’s out:
- The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
- 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
Not sure what you need? Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
