Many properties built or refurbished before the year 2000 frequently feature textured coatings, commonly known as Artex, which can contain asbestos. When left undisturbed and in good condition, these materials generally pose a low risk. However, any disturbance – such as drilling, sanding, or scraping – can release dangerous asbestos fibres into the air, creating a serious health hazard. You cannot determine the presence of asbestos simply by looking at a material; professional testing is the only definitive method. If you suspect your Worsbrough property's Artex might contain asbestos, it is crucial to avoid disturbing it and seek expert advice immediately.

At Asbestos In Homes, our removal process for asbestos-containing Artex is designed for maximum safety and efficiency, tailored specifically for Worsbrough properties:

• Professional Asbestos Testing: We begin with safe sample collection by a trained surveyor. These samples are then sent to UKAS-accredited laboratories for accurate analysis, providing you with a formal certificate confirming the presence or absence of asbestos.

• Meticulous Containment: Once asbestos is confirmed, we establish robust containment zones using specialist sheeting and negative pressure units (where required). This critical step prevents any asbestos fibres from contaminating other areas of your Worsbrough home during removal.

• Safe & Controlled Removal: Our highly skilled operatives carefully remove the asbestos-containing Artex. We employ industry-best practices and specialised equipment to minimise fibre release, ensuring the work area remains secure throughout the project.

• Thorough Clean-up & Air Monitoring: Following removal, the area undergoes an intensive clean-up process. For larger projects or licensed materials, we arrange independent, UKAS-accredited air testing to confirm the air quality is safe for reoccupation.

• Legal Waste Disposal: All hazardous asbestos waste is carefully bagged, sealed, and legally transported to licensed disposal facilities. We provide all necessary waste consignment notes for your records, assuring compliant and responsible disposal.
