Our asbestos ceiling removal process is structured, safe, and fully compliant:
1. Area Preparation & Sheeting
The work area is fully sheeted and sealed to prevent fibre spread to the rest of the property.
2. Negative Pressure Control
A negative pressure unit (NPU) is installed to control airflow and reduce the risk of airborne fibres during removal.
3. Full Plasterboard Ceiling Removal
We remove the entire plasterboard ceiling with the artex intact — no scraping — in line with HSE guidance. This significantly reduces fibre release. We do not replaster.
4. Licensed Disposal & Certification
All asbestos waste is transported to a licensed facility, and you receive a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note as proof of safe, legal disposal.
Yes. We operate across England. Just search “artex removal near me” and our team can travel to you. Whether you need asbestos textured coatings removed from a residential living room ceiling, hallway walls, or a commercial office space, our trained team is fully equipped to safely clear your property quickly.
Under our Artex removal service, we specifically handle asbestos-containing textured coatings found inside properties. This includes safely removing Artex coated onto plasterboard or traditional lath and plaster ceilings and walls. If you are unsure whether your ceiling coating contains asbestos, treat it as though it does and contact us for a safe removal quote. (Note: We also have dedicated teams for asbestos garages, floor tiles, and water tanks if you require a full property clearance).
Yes. Safety is our absolute priority. Our team is trained in removing asbestos textured coatings without unsafe scraping, and all our work strictly follows UK health and safety laws. Once the ceiling or wall is removed, you will receive the legally required Asbestos Waste Disposal Certificate, showing the material was disposed of via trusted carriers. This certificate is essential for your peace of mind or if you sell the property.
For most standard artex ceiling and wall removal jobs, we aim for completion within 1–3 working days once booked, subject to site access and the size of the rooms. We also offer urgent slots and rapid service if your home renovations have been suddenly halted. We will confirm the exact timeline in your fast quote.
