Artex Removal in Totton Operating Across Hampshire
Thinking about modernising your Totton home?
<p>If you're living in a house in Totton or the New Forest that was built or decorated before the turn of the millennium, there's a good chance your ceilings have that classic textured look. Whether it's the stippled peaks, the swirling fans, or the 'popcorn' style, these coatings—commonly known as <b>Artex</b>—were the height of fashion for decades. But as many homeowners in our area are finding out when they go to redecorate, these patterns don't just look dated; they often hide a secret ingredient: <b>white asbestos (chrysotile)</b>.</p><p>We've helped plenty of your neighbours in places like Calmore, Testwood, and Hounsdown clear out the old and make way for the new. At Clear Safe Asbestos, we're not just about removing a material; we're about making your home safe for your family while you get that smooth, modern finish you're after.</p>
Why Choose Us?
Does your textured coating contain asbestos?
<p>It’s a question we get asked almost every day. If your property was built or renovated before 2000, it's highly likely the Artex contains chrysotile. Back then, asbestos was used to strengthen the coating and make it easier to apply those decorative patterns. On its own, while it's sitting undisturbed on your ceiling, it isn't usually a major worry. The trouble starts the moment you decide to change it.</p><p>Are you planning on scraping it off to get a flat finish? Or maybe you're thinking about <b>sanding it down</b>? That’s where the danger lies. As soon as you break that surface, you're potentially releasing microscopic fibres into the air of your living room or bedroom. That’s why we always recommend getting a sample tested at a <b>UKAS-accredited lab</b> before you start any DIY project.</p>

Who We Are
Why professional removal beats the DIY route
<p>You might have seen videos online suggesting you can just steam it off or plaster over it. While <b>encapsulation</b> (skimming over the top) is sometimes an option, it doesn't actually get rid of the problem—it just hides it for the next person. If you ever need to install new spotlights or repair a leak, that asbestos is still there waiting for you.</p><p>When Clear Safe Asbestos handles the job, we take all the stress off your shoulders. We use a controlled wetting method to keep the material damp, which stops dust from even forming. Our teams are equipped with specialist <b>HEPA filtration</b> vacuums that are designed to catch particles far smaller than a human hair. Why risk your health when you can have a <b>CSCS-certified team</b> do the hard work safely?</p>

Safety and compliance you can trust
<p>We don't just turn up and start scraping. Because Artex removal often falls under the <b>Notifiable Non-Licensed Work (NNLW)</b> category, there's a strict set of rules we follow to keep everyone safe. This includes setting up proper work zones, wearing the right respiratory protection, and ensuring your home is thoroughly cleaned afterwards.</p><p>One of the most important parts of our service is the paperwork. As a <b>licensed waste carrier</b>, we don't just throw the old ceiling in a skip. We dispose of it at authorised hazardous waste sites and provide you with a <b>Hazardous Waste Consignment Note</b>. This is your legal proof that the asbestos has been handled and disposed of correctly—something you'll definitely need if you ever decide to sell your property in the future.</p>
