Artex removal across PO35

For an asbestos coating, the room is sealed, the coating kept wet and nothing sanded or dry-scraped, with the waste bagged and taken to a permitted site. Typical jobs include ceilings coming down and ceilings before plastering, including coated plasterboard, coated ceiling roses and stipple finishes.

We finish by cleaning the room thoroughly before the seals come down.

  1. Let us know which rooms have textured coatings
  2. Each coating is sampled and tested
  3. We go through the options and send a quote
  4. The room is sealed, and the coating removed wet or the boards taken down
  5. The room is cleaned and the waste goes to a permitted site with paperwork

Artex removal in PO35

From Bembridge, Foreland Fields and Hillway to small villages, homes across PO35 have textured ceilings. We test first, wherever the property is. 3 of the places we cover in PO35 are within about 6 miles of the sea, so outdoor roof work there is planned around the wind.

Bembridge: For a school such as Bembridge Church of England Primary School, the duty holder’s records should show any coatings. Older homes across Bembridge may have coatings added during past renovations.

Good to know

The usual limits are:

  • Larger-scale steam or gel removal must be notified before it starts, so allow time
  • The room being worked on has to be empty and sealed off
  • We leave the surface ready for your plasterer

Which option is right?

Plastering over it avoids disturbing it, but do not sand it smooth first, and it remains in place.

Landlords, managing agents and employers

Between tenancies is a good time to deal with asbestos, while the property is empty.

Before maintenance in a rented home, agents may ask about asbestos. A test or survey gives a definite answer.

Materials, one by one

Patched areas

Patches may be newer material.

Textured walls

Walls are treated like ceilings.

After we have finished in PO35

Note which other rooms have coatings, for future work.

  • Send photos of the coatings
  • Give us room sizes
  • Keep pets away
  • File the test result and waste note

Do not sand, scrape dry or wire-brush a textured coating before it’s been tested.

Do not try DIY removal products on untested coatings.

FAQs for PO35

Can you advise before I buy a property?

Yes. A pre-purchase survey tells you what’s there before you exchange, with the seller’s permission.

How can I get a price?

Start with the postcode and a description of the material. Then use our quote form or call 07833 053 749.

I think I’ve damaged asbestos. What now?

Leave the area, keep others out and close the door if you can. Avoid sweeping, vacuuming or dusting, then contact a professional.

What does it cost to remove Artex?

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

Does asbestos always have to come out?

No. Material in good condition that will not be disturbed can often be left and managed. It should be recorded and checked.

Could my home contain asbestos?

Looking won’t tell you. Laboratory analysis of a sample gives the answer, and anything from before 2000 is worth checking.

Do I need a test or a survey?

A test answers the question for the materials sampled; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.

  • Survey or test first when it isn’t clear what a material is
  • Work planned to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 and HSE guidance
  • Written paperwork: reports, results and waste consignment notes
  • Legal disposal at a permitted site, with a consignment note
