Local Artex removal in Inverness

Inverness is the administrative and shopping capital of the Highlands on the River Ness, a fast-growing small city with tourism, public sector and service jobs and expanding suburban estates. Our team handles Artex removal in every part of Inverness, including Kinmylies and Crown out to Hilton.

We offer Artex removal all over Inverness and the wider Highlands area. Whether it is a small one-off job or a larger project, you get one clear price before any work is booked.

Local buildings are largely Victorian stone villas, terraces, bungalows and modern estate housing, so we price every job around the property, parking and access and when you need it done.

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

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

How quickly can you start in Inverness?

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.
