OUR PHILOSOPHY

Is Your Textured Artex Coating Hiding Asbestos?

For many homes and commercial properties across Lincoln, Lincolnshire, and the wider East Midlands, textured wall and ceiling coatings – often known as Artex – are a familiar sight. However, if your property was constructed or last renovated before the year 2000, there's a significant chance these decorative finishes contain asbestos fibres. Discovering this can be worrying, but Asbestos In Homes specialises in providing safe, professional, and fully compliant asbestos Artex removal services. Our expert team is here to help you understand the risks, provide accurate testing, and ensure any hazardous materials are removed with the utmost care, protecting your property and everyone within it.

Dealing with asbestos-containing Artex isn't a task for DIY enthusiasts. When disturbed, asbestos fibres can become airborne, posing severe health risks if inhaled. These microscopic fibres can lead to serious lung diseases years down the line. That's why professional intervention is absolutely essential. Asbestos In Homes adheres strictly to Health & Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines, employing highly trained and certified specialists for every step of the process. We ensure complete site containment, use UKAS-accredited laboratories for reliable testing, and handle all legally compliant disposal, giving you total peace of mind that your asbestos Artex is removed safely and responsibly.

When you choose Asbestos In Homes for your Artex removal in Lincoln, you're opting for a meticulous, end-to-end service designed for safety and efficiency. Our process begins with an initial consultation and, if needed, asbestos testing and sampling. A trained surveyor will safely collect a small sample from your textured coating, sending it to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for analysis to confirm the presence of asbestos. Once confirmed, we'll plan the removal. This involves creating a secure, contained work area to prevent fibre release, carefully removing the Artex, and conducting thorough clean-up and air testing. All hazardous waste is then legally transported and disposed of at approved facilities, leaving your property free from asbestos contamination and ready for your next project.

Understanding that discovering asbestos Artex in your home can be stressful, Asbestos In Homes offers reassuring and efficient services specifically for domestic clients throughout Lincoln and Lincolnshire. Whether you're planning renovations, selling your property, or simply want to ensure your living space is safe, we're here to help. Our team treats every home with respect, minimising disruption and ensuring the removal process is as smooth as possible. From a single room to an entire property, we provide clear advice, transparent pricing, and a commitment to restoring your home to a safe, asbestos-free condition, ready for plastering or redecoration.

Artex, especially in homes in Lincoln and throughout Lincolnshire built before 2000, often contains asbestos fibres. If this textured coating gets damaged or disturbed, those dangerous fibres can become airborne. Breathing them in can lead to serious health problems later on. That's why it's really important for homeowners to get any suspected asbestos Artex checked out professionally.

You can't tell just by looking! The only way to be absolutely certain if your Artex in Lincoln contains asbestos is to have a professional take a small sample and send it for testing at a UKAS-accredited laboratory. We offer quick and safe asbestos testing services right here in Lincoln and the East Midlands, giving you clear, certified results.

While painting over Artex might seem like a quick fix, it's generally not the best long-term solution if it contains asbestos. Painting can act as a temporary encapsulation, but it won't remove the hazard. If the Artex gets damaged later, or if you plan any refurbishment, those fibres could still be released. We can advise you on whether encapsulation is a safe option for your property or if professional removal is better for lasting peace of mind.

Safe asbestos Artex removal in Lincoln involves a few key steps. First, we conduct a survey and take samples for testing. If asbestos is confirmed, our certified and licensed professionals create a controlled work area to prevent fibre spread. We then carefully remove the hazardous material, ensure a thorough clean-up, and handle all the compliant disposal of the asbestos waste. We make sure your property is safe and free from asbestos contamination.

We offer professional asbestos Artex removal services for both homeowners and commercial properties across Lincoln, Lincolnshire, and the wider East Midlands. For our commercial clients – including landlords, businesses, and public sector properties – we operate as BESA PROPERTY SERVICES LTD, providing the same high standards of safety and compliance for larger-scale projects.

The cost of asbestos Artex removal in Lincoln can vary depending on factors like the size of the area, the type of asbestos, and how difficult the job is.
