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.
