Artex and Textured Ceiling Asbestos across Cheshire
Chemical works, salt-town industry, farm buildings and 1960s-70s housing estates keep asbestos surveys and removal in steady demand across Cheshire.
Textured decorative coatings were hugely popular in UK homes from the 1960s to the 1980s. Many contain chrysotile (white asbestos) at low levels. Left alone and painted they are low risk, but sanding, scraping or drilling them can release fibres.
Guide price: Test from £95 · removal per room from £600.
