Artex-coated ceilings can be plastered over to give a smooth, modern finish. The process involves carefully preparing the surface by removing any loose or damaged areas of the Artex coating. A bonding agent is then applied to ensure the new plaster adheres properly. Once the surface is prepped, 2 layers of plaster is applied to cover the Artex, and it can be finished to a smooth, even surface.

However, it's important to note that some older Artex coatings might contain a small amount of asbestos, especially in older properties. If you suspect that your ceiling has asbestos or if you're unsure, you may want to consult an asbestos specialist before starting any work to avoid health risks and ensure safe removal or treatment.
