Ilford is a large, diverse town in north-east London with a major shopping centre, Elizabeth line services and dense residential streets stretching out to Essex suburbs.

Local buildings are largely Edwardian terraces, inter-war semis and new-build flats, and we price every job around the building, access and when you need it done.

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

Landlords in Ilford often have Artex dealt with during a void period so the property is easier to repaint between tenants.

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.
