Your questions about Artex removal in Woodgreen
Do you cover small places like Woodgreen?
We do: small villages are covered too. Just tell us how to reach the property.
Do textured ceilings in Woodgreen homes contain asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
How dangerous is asbestos?
Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious diseases, often decades later. The main risk is from disturbing it, so identifying it before work is important.
What should I do if I’ve disturbed asbestos?
Stop work, leave the area and do not try to clean up. Then get advice; if you are worried about your health, speak to your GP.
How do I get a quote?
Just fill in the enquiry form or give us a call on 07833 053 749. Tell us the postcode, what the material is and where, and send photos if you can.
How quickly can you come out?
We agree a date when you accept the quote. Notifiable jobs cannot start until they’ve been notified.
What if my house is newer?
Buildings from after 2000 shouldn’t, because of the 1999 ban, but older parts and reused materials can still contain it.
Do you work in flats?
Yes. For shared areas, ask the managing agent about the asbestos register.
About our artex removal in Woodgreen
Left undisturbed, an intact textured coating is low risk. The problem comes when it’s sanded, scraped dry, drilled or knocked through during a renovation, which is why testing first matters in Woodgreen. From ceilings before plastering and ceilings coming down, we cover stipple finishes, coated ceiling roses and coated plasterboard.
In places like Woodgreen, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. If you are unsure what you need, ask: we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a test, a survey or removal.

Materials, one by one
Coated plasterboard
The coating sits on plasterboard or plaster. Sometimes it’s simpler to remove the boards whole.
Patched areas
Different areas may need separate samples.
DIY and asbestos
Working on a fragile asbestos cement roof is dangerous in itself, quite apart from the asbestos, so stay off it.
Asbestos waste cannot go in household bins, recycling or skips. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
