About our artex removal in Winchfield

We remove textured coatings from ceilings, walls, ceiling roses and coated boards, in houses, flats and commercial premises across Winchfield. Typical materials include stipple finishes, textured walls and swirl patterns, and typical jobs are flaking textured ceilings and walls before a kitchen or bathroom refit.

Rural homes near Winchfield have often been altered over generations, so coatings may date from earlier work. Nothing is removed until it’s been identified, because the method depends on what the material is.

Should you do it yourself?

A professional job comes with paperwork: results, a report or a consignment note, which buyers and builders may ask for.

Fragile roofs are a serious falls risk, as well as an asbestos risk, so never climb onto one.

How we work

We bag and label the waste as we work, for disposal at a permitted site. Parking close by makes the day easier, so let us know about any restrictions.

  1. Let us know which rooms have textured coatings
  2. Each coating is sampled and tested
  3. If asbestos is found, we explain the options and quote
  4. The room is sealed, and the coating removed wet or the boards taken down
  5. We clean up and send the waste paperwork

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear belongings, but leave the material alone
  • Ensure we can get to the area
  • Dig out previous surveys

More about this service

Winchfield: your questions answered

Could my house in Winchfield contain asbestos?

Older homes can, if they date from before 2000. A sample test is the only reliable answer. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.

Do textured ceilings in Winchfield homes contain asbestos?

Some older coatings do, and many do not. Testing a sample is the only way to know.

Do I need a test or a survey?

Testing covers particular materials, while a survey covers everything in scope. Before building work, you normally need a survey.

How much does Artex removal cost in Winchfield?

Room size, method and waste all affect the price. We quote once we know what it contains.

Should I check for asbestos before buying?

Of course. With the seller’s agreement, a pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you commit.

How quickly can you come out?

It depends on the job and our diary. You’ll get available dates with the quote, and notifiable work needs notifying before it starts.

Can I just skim over it?

Covering it is an option if it’s intact, but never sand it first, and keep a record.

Looking after things afterwards

Tell your plasterer and electrician what was done.

Some practical advice:

  • Clear the rooms before the work
  • Keep the results and paperwork
  • Test every different coating
  • Give us room sizes

What to avoid

If a coating has been damaged by a leak, keep people away from fallen pieces.

Don’t use a steamer or chemical stripper on an untested coating.

  • Identify it first: we test or survey before planning removal
  • Planned to HSE guidance and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012
  • Paperwork for your records: reports, lab results and consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
