Many people don't realise that their Artex ceilings could contain asbestos. While the fibres are generally safe when left undisturbed and in good condition, any drilling, sanding, scraping, or demolition work can release them. These airborne asbestos fibres, when inhaled, can lead to severe lung diseases years later. Because you can't tell if Artex contains asbestos just by looking at it, professional testing is always the first crucial step. Don't take chances with your health or the health of others; trust our fully trained team to handle this sensitive work.

When it comes to something as serious as asbestos, you need a contractor you can completely rely on. Southern Asbestos is dedicated to providing a safe, reliable, and transparent service every step of the way. We hold full Public Liability Insurance, and all our work strictly follows HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012). Our Waste Carriers Licence confirms we dispose of all asbestos waste legally and responsibly. Our local, experienced team has years of hands-on experience, and we provide clear, detailed quotes with no hidden fees, so you always know what to expect.

Your safety is paramount. Our skilled technicians follow a strict, multi-step process for Artex removal. First, if not already done, we'll take a sample for UKAS-accredited laboratory testing to confirm the presence of asbestos. Once confirmed, we establish a controlled work area, using specialist equipment to contain any dust and prevent fibre release. Our team, equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and respiratory protective equipment (RPE), carefully removes the Artex. Finally, we conduct thorough clean-up and air monitoring if required, leaving your property completely safe and free from asbestos contamination, ready for your next project.
