There are several important reasons why homeowners and landlords choose Artex Removal Grantham when improving their properties:

• Health protection: Older textured coatings can contain asbestos. Professional Artex Removal Grantham prevents fibre release that can lead to asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma.
• Artex is difficult to maintain: The grooves trap dust, cobwebs and grime, making Artex an impractical surface. Artex Removal Grantham gives you a fresh, clean starting point.
• Possible asbestos content: Many Artex coatings applied before 1984—and some up to 1999—may contain asbestos. Safe asbestos Artex removal becomes essential before any renovation.
• Better for decorating: After Artex Removal Grantham, ceilings can be skimmed smoothly, making painting and decorating far easier.
• Rooms look brighter and larger: Heavy texture can make ceilings feel lower. Smooth ceilings created after Artex Removal Grantham help open up the space visually.
