Artex & ceilingsArtex and textured ceilings in Coventry
Many Coventry homes built or decorated before 2000 have textured ceilings. Some of these coatings contained asbestos. Do not sand or scrape them. Send a photo and we pass your enquiry to a local specialist who can advise on testing and safe removal.

3. Safe removal or encapsulation
If it does, the specialist advises on removal or sealing, depending on condition.

Good to know.
Is all Artex asbestos?
No. Many textured coatings contain none, but some did before 2000. Only a laboratory test can confirm.
Can I scrape it off myself?
No. Disturbing asbestos releases fibres. Get it tested first.
