In Gillingham we often skim over Artex while a house is empty between completion and moving in, which is the easiest time to protect the rooms.

What does Artex removal cost in Gillingham?

It depends on the job. Prices in Gillingham come down to the size of the job and access and timing, so send your details for an exact fixed price. Our cost guide gives typical UK prices.

Does Artex contain asbestos?

It can. Textured coatings such as Artex had small amounts of chrysotile (white asbestos) added until the mid-1980s, and asbestos use was fully banned in the UK in 1999. Any textured coating applied before 2000 should be tested before it is disturbed. Many coatings test negative, but you cannot tell by looking.

Before you book: a quick Gillingham checklist

  • Find out roughly when the property was built or last decorated
  • Have any textured coating applied before 2000 sampled and lab tested before work
  • Decide whether you want a skim over, overboarding or full removal
  • Get a written quote that lists testing, preparation, plastering, repairs and waste
  • Check how the contractor will deal with deep peaks without sanding
