We work right across it, including Mapplewell and Wombwell.

The property mix in Barnsley is mainly Stone and brick terraces, ex-colliery housing, semis and new-build estates, and each quote takes into account the property, parking and access and when you need it done.

A lot of the homes in and around Barnsley were built or redecorated between the 1960s and 1990s, which is exactly when Artex was at its most popular.
