For landlords, agents and businesses
If you are responsible for a non-domestic building or the common parts of flats in Woodside, 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.
Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

So you know what to expect:

Materials we deal with
Artex ceilings
A small sample from each different coating tells you whether it contains asbestos.
Coated plasterboard
The coating sits on plasterboard or plaster. Sometimes it’s simpler to remove the boards whole.

Typical Artex jobs in Woodside
Textured coatings were popular for decades because they hid cracks and uneven plaster, and some contained a small amount of white asbestos (chrysotile) for strength.
In older properties, we often see:
- Damaged or cracked coatings
- Extensions that cut into ceilings
- Ceilings coming down
- Coatings damaged by DIY
A school like Vernham Dean Gillum's Church of England Primary School should know from its asbestos register whether coatings have been tested, before decorators start.

Helpful guides
Common questions in Woodside
Is the Artex in my Woodside home asbestos?
Some may, but many coatings don’t contain asbestos. Testing a sample is the only way to know.
How far is Woodside from London?
We cover Woodside, about 63 miles from central London.
How can I get a price?
Send us the details: the postcode, what you’ve found and where it is, with photos if possible. To do that, send photos through our quote form, or phone 07833 053 749.
Can you come if the asbestos is damaged?
First, keep people away from the damaged material: shut the door if you can and do not sweep it up. Then get in touch and we’ll advise.
Can asbestos go in my bin?
Never: it’s hazardous waste. When we remove it, it’s taken to a permitted site with a consignment note.
Should I take the ceiling down instead?
It depends on the room and the condition of the ceiling. We will advise for each room.
Is Artex removal licensed work?
Normally not, according to HSE. Larger steam or gel jobs must be notified first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Landlords, agents, businesses and builders all use our services.
Choosing the right option
