Artex was a popular decorative finish, used extensively on ceilings and walls for decades. Unfortunately, many of these textured coatings, especially those applied before the year 2000, contain asbestos fibres. When disturbed, these fibres can become airborne and pose a serious health risk. That's why attempting DIY Artex removal is so dangerous. Our expert, trained team knows exactly how to identify, contain, and safely remove asbestos-containing Artex, protecting your health and your property.

Your safety is our absolute priority. When you choose Southern Asbestos for Artex removal, we follow a strict, multi-step process. First, we carry out a detailed inspection, taking samples for UKAS-accredited laboratory testing if required, to confirm asbestos presence. Once confirmed, we establish a controlled work area, sealing it off to prevent any fibre spread. Our technicians, wearing specialist personal protective equipment, then carefully dampen and remove the Artex. Every tiny piece of asbestos waste is double-bagged, sealed, and prepared for secure, licensed disposal. Finally, we conduct a meticulous clean-up, leaving your property safe and ready for its next stage.
