Overview

## Finishing the job after an artex or textured coating removal

Many older homes across Anglesey and North Wales still have textured or &#x27;Artex&#x27; ceilings, which were commonly applied with asbestos-containing compounds up until the 1980s and sometimes later. Once that coating has been safely removed, the ceiling or wall underneath usually needs replastering before it can be painted or decorated again.

Evergreen Group (Asbestos) Ltd carries out the asbestos removal side itself and arranges the plastering that follows through trusted subcontractors, so the project doesn&#x27;t stall between the asbestos stage and the finishing stage. One review from a customer, Richard, confirms the same joined-up approach applied to a garage roof removal, and a replastered ceiling after artex removal has been part of previous projects too.

Because plastering here is a secondary service, it&#x27;s offered as a natural follow-on once the asbestos-containing material has gone, rather than as a stand-alone trade. That keeps the sequencing right: the textured coating is tested and removed under controlled conditions first, the area is cleared and checked, and only then does the plastering work begin.

Any plastering materials used are covered by the manufacturer&#x27;s guarantee, so you have a clear point of reference if anything needs attention after the job is finished.

### Who it&#x27;s for

- Homeowners with an Artex or textured ceiling they want removed and replastered
- Landlords refreshing a rental property before re-letting
- Buyers of older properties wanting ceilings brought up to a modern finish
- Anyone who has already had asbestos removed and needs the surface made good
- Renovators updating a whole room as part of a wider refurbishment

### When you need it

- After a textured coating has been tested and found to contain asbestos
- Once an artex ceiling has been safely removed and the area cleared
- When a ceiling or wall is left rough or patchy after asbestos removal
- As part of a wider refurbishment where old finishes are being updated
- Before redecorating a room that&#x27;s had asbestos remediation work done

The risk

## Why the plastering stage needs the right sequencing
Replastering after an artex or textured coating removal isn&#x27;t just a cosmetic job, get the order or the preparation wrong and you can end up redoing it.

### Plastering over an unchecked surface
If a ceiling hasn&#x27;t been properly cleared and inspected after asbestos removal, plastering over it too soon can trap debris or leave an uneven base that fails later.

### Gaps between trades
Using separate, unconnected contractors for removal and plastering can leave a delay between jobs, with nobody taking responsibility for how the surface was left.

### Poor finish on an uneven substrate
Ceilings that have had textured coating stripped back can be left rough or inconsistent, and skipping proper preparation before plastering shows through in the final finish.

### Common mistakes we see

- Booking a general plasterer before the asbestos-containing coating has been tested and removed
- Assuming any contractor can plaster over a surface that&#x27;s just had asbestos removed
- Not asking who&#x27;s responsible if the finish fails after both jobs are done
- Decorating straight over a new plaster coat before it&#x27;s fully cured
- Leaving a long gap between removal and replastering, during which the bare surface is exposed

Our process

## How the job runs, step by step

- 01
### Identify and test
The textured coating is sampled and tested to confirm whether it contains asbestos before anything is disturbed.

- 02
### Remove safely
Evergreen Group and its trusted subcontractors remove the asbestos-containing coating under controlled conditions, following non-licensed or notifiable non-licensed work procedures as appropriate.

- 03
### Clear and inspect
The area is cleared of waste and inspected before any further work is agreed, with a statement of cleanliness provided on smaller jobs.

- 04
### Replaster through a trusted subcontractor
A trusted plastering subcontractor is brought in to make good the ceiling or wall, working from the same brief so there&#x27;s no gap between stages.

- 05
### Hand over ready to decorate
Once the plaster has cured, the surface is left ready for painting or decorating, with the manufacturer&#x27;s guarantee applying to the materials used.

What you get

## Why it&#x27;s worth doing properly

### Removal and replastering under one plan
No handover gap between the asbestos stage and the finishing stage.

### Less time with a bare, unfinished ceiling
Plastering is scheduled to follow on from removal, rather than booked separately from scratch.

### A record of what was removed and when
Documentation from the removal stage gives you a reference point before decorating starts.

### A finish ready for your home, not a building site
The surface is made good properly, so it&#x27;s ready for paint or wallpaper, not just patched over.

### Trusted subcontractors, not a stranger off a directory
Plastering work is arranged through contractors Evergreen Group already knows and has worked with.

### Manufacturer&#x27;s guarantee on the materials used
Plaster and finishing materials carry the manufacturer&#x27;s own guarantee for peace of mind.

In detail

## What&#x27;s involved in replastering after artex removal
The scope of plastering work depends on how the asbestos-containing coating was removed and the condition of the surface underneath.

### Materials involved
Textured coatings and Artex applied before the 1980s, and in some cases later, commonly contained chrysotile (white) asbestos mixed into the compound. Once this is tested and confirmed, removal focuses on taking the coating back to a sound surface, typically the original plasterboard or lath-and-plaster base, ready for a new skim coat.

### Methods used for replastering
Depending on the condition of the surface after removal, the plasterer may apply a bonding coat before a finishing skim, or in some cases overboard with new plasterboard if the original base has been damaged during the removal process. The approach is agreed on site once the removal stage is complete.

### Ceilings vs walls
Most of this work involves ceilings, since textured coatings were most commonly applied there, but the same approach applies to any wall that&#x27;s had an asbestos-containing finish removed. Walls are generally quicker to make good than ceilings, which need careful support and a level finish overhead.

### Residential vs commercial projects
In homes, this is usually a single room or a small number of ceilings as part of a refresh or renovation. In commercial properties, textured coatings can cover larger areas such as office ceilings or corridors, which may need a refurbishment survey across the whole space before the removal and plastering stages are scheduled.

### Local North Wales property context
Textured ceilings were extremely common in homes built or extended through the 1960s to 1980s across Anglesey, Gwynedd, Conwy and the wider North Wales area, and many have never been touched since. When these properties come up for sale, renovation or re-letting, it&#x27;s worth checking the ceiling before any work is planned, since disturbing it without testing first is one of the more common ways people are exposed to asbestos fibres in the home.

### Paperwork and guarantees
The asbestos removal stage is documented with a statement of cleanliness on smaller jobs. The plastering materials themselves are covered by the manufacturer&#x27;s guarantee, rather than a guarantee set by Evergreen, so keep the product details supplied by the subcontractor for your records.

### How much does it cost to remove an artex ceiling and replaster it?
+There&#x27;s no fixed price, as it depends on the size of the ceiling, how the asbestos is confirmed and removed, and the condition of the surface underneath. Get in touch for a quote.

### How long does the whole process take, from testing to a finished ceiling?
+Testing and removal typically come first, followed by the plaster curing time before decorating. Timescales vary by room size and number of ceilings involved; ask for a timeframe when you get your quote.

### Do you do the plastering yourselves?
+The asbestos removal is carried out by Evergreen Group and its trusted subcontractors. The plastering itself is arranged through a trusted subcontractor, so the two stages are coordinated under one project.

### Is the plastering guaranteed?
+The materials used are covered by the manufacturer&#x27;s guarantee. Ask the subcontractor for the product details when the work is completed.

### Do I need to test my ceiling before replastering it?
+If it&#x27;s a textured or Artex-style coating applied before the 1980s (and sometimes later), it should be tested before anything is disturbed, since the compound may contain asbestos.

### Will I get paperwork confirming the asbestos was removed safely?
+Yes, smaller jobs receive a statement of cleanliness as confirmation the area has been dealt with and cleared.

### Can you replaster a whole house of textured ceilings?
+Yes, larger projects covering multiple rooms can be scheduled, with stage payments available for projects expected to run longer than three weeks.

### Can this be done as an emergency if a ceiling has been disturbed?
+Out-of-hours response is available for emergency asbestos disturbances. Replastering is then scheduled as a follow-on once the area has been made safe.

### Do you cover plastering work outside Anglesey?
+Yes, this service is arranged across North Wales and the wider area covered, including Gwynedd, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Ceredigion, Liverpool, Shropshire and Cheshire.

### What if my ceiling isn&#x27;t asbestos, can you still arrange plastering?
+This service is offered as a follow-on to asbestos removal work. If no asbestos is found, get in touch to discuss what&#x27;s needed and it can still potentially be arranged.
