About our East Kilbride service

East Kilbride is Scotland's first post-war new town, south of Glasgow, laid out in planned neighbourhoods around a large covered shopping centre, with public sector, science and engineering employers. That is where we come in: we handle Artex removal for homeowners, landlords, letting agents and property developers throughout East Kilbride, from Hairmyres, Mains and Nerston.

Getting Artex removal sorted in East Kilbride should not be a hassle. Fill in the form with a few details and we will reply with a clear, fixed quote.

Typical properties here include New town terraces, semis, ex-council flats and modern detached homes, so we price every job around the property, parking and access and timing.

Some older East Kilbride homes have lath and plaster ceilings under the Artex, which can mean overboarding is the better option.

Homeowners across Scotland are updating dated textured ceilings as part of kitchen, lighting and loft projects.
