About our artex removal in Worplesdon
Many Artex ceilings contain no asbestos at all. A small sample tells you which you have, so your plasterer can carry on if it’s clear. Common materials are textured walls, swirl patterns and coated ceiling roses, and typical jobs are ceilings before plastering and coatings scraped during DIY.
In towns and villages like Worplesdon, textured ceilings appear in older and newer homes, often added during past renovations. Our quotes are written and say what’s included, so there are no surprises.

Doing it yourself?
Power tools, sanding and jet-washing release the most fibres, so avoid them completely.
Never put asbestos in a bin or skip. It must go to a permitted site; check with your council about small amounts.
A closer look at the materials
Ceiling roses and cornices
Decorative mouldings are sometimes coated too.
Painted coatings
Paint often hides the coating, which doesn’t change what’s underneath.
Your options compared
Testing first can save a lot: a clear result means normal methods. A test can sometimes save the cost of removal altogether, if the material turns out not to contain asbestos.

FAQs for Worplesdon
Do you cover small places like Worplesdon?
We do: small villages are covered too. Tell us about access and parking.
Do older homes in Worplesdon have asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos was used until the 1999 ban, so older homes and older alterations in Worplesdon can contain it. Garage roofs, Artex, floor tiles, soffits and flues are typical examples.
Can you help a business or landlord?
Yes, as well as homeowners. Send the details.
What if asbestos is found during building work?
Work there should pause and the area be kept clear. We can test the material and, if needed, plan its removal.
Do I get anything in writing afterwards?
That depends on the job: a report for a survey, a lab result for a test, or waste paperwork for removal.
Do you work on commercial premises?
We do. Tell us the size and use of the building and what you need.
Can you quote from photos?
Photos are often enough to give a quote, though some need a visit first.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
What happens next
We clean the room and dispose of the waste legally, with a consignment note.
Once we’re done:
- Book your plasterer after removal
- Photos help us quote
- Keep the results and paperwork
- Keep pets out of the work area
Avoid these
Never sand or dry-scrape Artex before testing.
Test before the builders arrive.
Landlords, managing agents and employers
Schools, halls and community buildings are non-domestic premises, so the duty to manage applies.
If your business premises in Worplesdon were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and you must tell contractors what’s there.
