Hi,
I am renovating my flat which was built in 1967 and all the ceiling has artex.
I plan to get all the ceiling skimmed because I hate small dots (phobia…) but a neighbour just warned me about his ceiling plaster failure. His ceiling was skimmed about 8 years ago.
Can any one with experience on artex please advice what other product besides PVA I can specify when getting plasterer to quote? I read that most of you say PVA should be fine but I don't mind spending a bit more on for peace of mind. Unfortunately overloading isn't a option. Most of my ceiling artex are painted, some areas like hallway and lounge has been re-artexed to fan patten maybe 10-15 years ago.
