  • No, just the ceiling.

    I'm tempted to have a go depending what it's like when I've tried to strip the artex.

    Incidentally how do you know when it's artex and when it's just stipple like plaster?

  • Plaster is brittle and Artex will be a lot harder to knock the tips off.

    You could just knock Artex back with the edge of a trowel, paint PVA on it and skim it with Multifinish.

  • Hard to know if that Artex will need boarding without seeing how coarse it is. And hopefully you don’t have a cornice if it does need boarding. But if I was to make a very rough guess without knowing how fast people work, I reckon you might get that done in two days by two people. So maybe £800 - £1k as a ballpark.
