Artex removal across Salford and Greater Manchester

Salford is city bordering central Manchester across the Irwell, with former docks redeveloped as Salford Quays and MediaCityUK, plus a university and older terraced districts. We know the area well: we carry out Artex removal for homeowners, landlords, letting agents and property developers throughout Salford, from Walkden, Weaste and Seedley.

We provide Artex removal across Salford and the wider Greater Manchester area. Whether it is a small one-off job or a larger project, we give you one clear price before any work is booked.

In Salford we work on Waterside apartments, Victorian terraces and post-war council housing. Each one brings its own access and timing considerations, which is why every quote is based on your details.

A lot of the homes in and around Salford were built or redecorated between the 1960s and 1990s, which is exactly when Artex was at its most popular.

In Salford we regularly see swirl and stipple ceilings in hallways, landings and bedrooms that owners want brought up to date before selling or letting.

Do you work in Walkden and other parts of Salford?

Yes, we do. We cover the whole of Salford, including Walkden, Weaste, Seedley, Kersal, Broughton and Salford Quays, plus nearby Manchester, Bury, Altrincham and Bolton.

How long does Artex removal take?

Skimming a typical bedroom ceiling takes one day. A whole house is usually three to six days depending on the number of rooms. Full removal takes longer because the coating has to be softened and stripped first.

Before you book: a quick Salford checklist

  • Allow three to seven days for the plaster to dry before you paint
  • Buy contract matt emulsion for the mist coat rather than vinyl paint
  • 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
