How Is Asbestos Artex Removed in Hampshire?

Asbestos is a mineral that has been used in various construction materials for decades until it was deemed hazardous due to the health risks it poses. Artex, a slurry coating applied to textured walls and ceilings, was commonly used in the UK until the mid-1980s, with many containing asbestos. Asbestos Artex becomes a health risk when it is disturbed and its fibers become airborne, making it essential to remove it safely.

What is Asbestos Artex?

Asbestos Artex is a textured, decorative coating that was commonly used on walls and ceilings in the UK from the 1960s to the 1980s. This coating was popular due to its textured finish and various patterns, providing an alternative to traditional plasterwork. Artex was made using a combination of materials, with asbestos fibers added to create a hard, durable finish. It was commonly used in residential and commercial buildings, including schools and hospitals.

Asbestos Artex becomes a health risk when it is damaged, drilled, sanded, or scraped, causing the asbestos fibers to become airborne. When inhaled, these fibers can cause severe lung conditions, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis.
