For decades, Artex was a very popular finish for ceilings and walls, especially between the 1970s and 1990s. The problem is, many of these older textured coatings contained asbestos fibres. While undisturbed Artex is generally safe, any work like drilling, sanding, or scraping can release these microscopic, dangerous fibres into your home. This is why attempting DIY Artex removal can be incredibly risky. Our trained team understands these health hazards intimately and always takes strict precautions to protect you and your property during any work.

Unsure if your Artex contains asbestos? Don't take a chance. The first critical step is professional testing. Our local team can safely take a small sample of your textured coating in Wallingford, minimising any disturbance. We then send this sample to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis. You'll receive a definitive certificate, confirming whether asbestos is present. This service gives you the clear answer you need to decide on the best way forward, whether that's safe removal or effective management.

If your Artex tests positive for asbestos, our fully trained and experienced team will carefully plan and carry out its removal. We follow strict HSE guidelines and the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 to the letter. This means we'll meticulously seal off the work area, use specialised equipment to contain any dust, and remove the Artex safely. Our commitment to safety means your Wallingford home will be left clean and completely free from asbestos contamination, ensuring your family's health. We handle all types of domestic asbestos removal with the utmost care.
