Hi all, hoping for a little professional advice.

I noticed yesterday that the ceiling in our spare room has started to peel away. As it has a textured finish, I’m concerned about if it’s artex and therefor potentially contains white asbestos? At the time I was cleaning the windows and doing some damp treatment and didn’t think before flaking a few bits off that were already flaking.

would appreciate if anyone can help ID the below and also to provide any advice on how best to make the area right - we we’re about to redecorate this room over Easter to become a nursery in preparation for our first born.

thank you!

Overboard and skim.
 
it looks like there has been a water penetration , check the roof first may be a bigger job then you think.
