Asbestos Removal

Do you think you have Asbestos in your Artex?

Artex is a coating that has been commonly applied to ceilings and walls in houses across the UK – it was especially popular in houses built or decorated through the 1970s and 1980s. Unfortunately, Artex and other similar coatings that were applied before 1999 often contained white asbestos in order to strengthen them.

The dangers regarding asbestos are now widely known and accepted, but at the time its use as a building material was common practice. This means that your home or commercial premises could still have Artex that contains asbestos.

We regularly carry out asbestos-containing Artex removal from homes and sites across the UK. Our team of asbestos professionals quickly, effectively and safely remove the Artex to minimise disruption to your routine. On completion of the work we have an independent UKAS-accredited air monitoring company conduct air monitoring tests at the site to measure levels of asbestos fibres in the air.

Re-occupation of the home or site will not take place until the air quality is at a satisfactory level to ensure that it is safe for anyone living or working there.
