How artex removal works in Winnall
HSE’s code of practice says work on textured coatings will not normally be licensable. Bigger jobs using steam or gel must be notified before they start. From rented flats before redecoration and ceilings due to be knocked through or removed, we deal with Artex ceilings, stipple finishes and swirl patterns and more.
Homes in places like Winnall may have textured ceilings in several rooms, so each type needs testing. Not sure what you need? Just ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal, whichever fits.

Questions from Winnall
Is the Artex in my Winnall home asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Only a test will tell you.
How far is Winnall from London?
Winnall is about 60 miles from central London, well within our area.
How can I get a price?
Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
What does licensed work mean?
Work on higher-risk materials, such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board, is licensed and must be done by an HSE-licensed contractor. Most asbestos cement and textured coatings are non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed.
What paperwork will I get?
Depending on the job, a report, results or a consignment note.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work in that area should stop, then have the material identified before anything else happens.
Is it better to remove the coating or the ceiling?
It depends on the room and the condition of the ceiling. We’ll explain the options.

For landlords, agents and businesses
Contractors working for you need asbestos information before they start. HSE’s campaigns stress this point to building owners and trades alike.
The duty to manage applies to non-domestic premises and common parts, not to single private homes, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
Options to consider in Winnall
Plastering over it is an option, but never sand it first, and the asbestos stays in the building. What you pay depends on the job itself: the materials involved, how much there is, access and paperwork. Every quote is individual.
Why us?
- Domestic and commercial work
- No removal until we know what it is
- Work done to the regulations
- Lab analysis by an accredited laboratory
Read our prices page or published price ranges.
Looking after things afterwards
Covered coatings should be recorded.
If asbestos stays in the building:
- Line up the plasterer for afterwards
- Keep pets out of the work area
- Keep the results and paperwork
- Plan around the closed rooms
What to avoid
Plan testing before the renovation starts.

Where asbestos turns up
Renovations disturb coatings: sanding, dry scraping or drilling.
These are the materials and situations that most often lead to Artex jobs:
- Rented homes refurbished between tenants
- Coatings damaged by DIY
- Coatings in the way of electrical work
- Ceilings before plastering
If your home is one of the older properties in Winnall, near Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere, textured ceilings may date from an earlier renovation.
