Skim over artex

Many people ask us if it is possible to skim over artex… The answer is Yes you can!!

Back in the 60/70’s artex was a desired finish but now it’s one of the applications that now look dated. There are a number of ways to remove artex but depending on the age of your property you need to be careful as they can have asbestos in which is harmful to your health if you breath in the fibers.

Show Press Release (105 More Words)

Steam – You can use a steam machine and hold it against the artex and then use a scraper to loosen the material (Please make sure you test for asbestos is your property is prior to the mid-1980s)

Removal Solution – There are several products on the market that have majority of the methods use the same process but we will insure the correct product is use to meet your requirements.

Both of these methods will normally still require you to skim and sometimes board and skim the area again so it is normally more cost effective to cover the Artex with a layer of fresh plaster.

Testimonial

I can’t not recommend Craig’s work enough! He’s a friendly reasonable priced plasterer that has literally gone out of his way to ensure we can continue to complete our extension. His quality provides a great finish and he’s so neat and tidy. Would highly recommend. Thanks again Craig we really appreciate it!

- Debbie Chapman – Manchester

Completed my lounge ceiling by removing old plaster coving, without damaging my wallpaper (saving me from redecoration) boarding and plastering and new coving. Lovely job and looks like glass as so smooth. We will use all the time in future. Good to see you rockin’ the stilts!

- Christine Price – Manchester

Outstanding plastering service provided by Craig today. Looked like a two-day job but finished in one. Thoroughly exceeded my expectations. Helped me troubleshoot a couple of other DIY problems. House was left clean & tidy. And he’s a nice guy too! Thank you Craig 🙏
