Artex removal in Bristol

Anyone based in Bristol knows the area: Bristol is the largest city in the South West, with a maritime history, two universities, a strong aerospace and creative economy and a wide mix of hillside neighbourhoods. Our Artex removal service covers the whole town, including Easton and Fishponds.

We offer Artex removal across Bristol and the wider Greater Bristol area. Big job or small, you get one clear price before anything is booked in.

We regularly deal with Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces and modern harbourside apartments. Each one is a little different, which is why every quote is based on your details.

Stairwells are one of the most common jobs we see in Bristol, usually walls and ceiling done together so the access only goes up once.

Across Greater Bristol, skimming over Artex is far more common than full removal, because it is quicker and leaves the coating sealed in.

Every job is different. Your price depend on the size of the job and access, so the quickest way to an exact figure is to send your details. Typical prices are in the facts box at the top of this page and in our cost guide.

Is it better to skim over Artex or remove it?

Skimming over is usually the best option. It is quicker, cheaper and leaves the coating sealed and undisturbed underneath, which is the safest approach if there is any chance of asbestos. Full removal makes sense when you need to get back to the original surface, for example before structural work or rewiring.
