Many homes built or refurbished before the year 2000 in Barnsley often feature textured coatings like Artex, which frequently contain asbestos fibres. While undisturbed Artex might not pose an immediate threat, any damage, drilling, sanding, or scraping can release microscopic asbestos particles into the air. Inhaling these fibres carries serious health risks, including lung diseases and cancer. Identifying and safely managing or removing asbestos Artex is crucial for occupant health and property value. Never attempt to remove suspect materials; always consult certified professionals.

Our comprehensive Artex removal process ensures maximum safety and compliance for every Barnsley project.

1. Initial Testing: We begin by safely taking samples of the textured coating. These are then sent to UKAS-accredited laboratories for precise analysis, confirming the presence and type of asbestos.
2. Strategic Planning: Once asbestos is confirmed, our team devises a tailored removal plan, adhering to Health & Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines and Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012).
3. Controlled Containment: We meticulously seal off the work area using plastic sheeting and negative pressure units, preventing any fibre release into unaffected parts of your Barnsley home.
4. Safe Removal: Our highly trained and equipped specialists carefully remove the asbestos-containing Artex using specialised techniques to minimise fibre disturbance.
5. Thorough Clean-up: The area undergoes a rigorous three-stage cleaning process, including HEPA vacuuming, to eliminate all residual asbestos dust.
6. Air Testing & Clearance: For licensed works, we arrange for independent UKAS-accredited air testing to confirm the air is free of asbestos fibres before clearance certificates are issued.
7. Legal Disposal: All hazardous waste is securely bagged, legally transported, and disposed of at licensed waste facilities, with full documentation provided.
