Artex ceiling contains asbestos
Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 3.15 PM
Hi All the ceiling in my house artex. Artex was tested and contains very low amount white asbestos. Artex overall in good condition, but in 2 rooms, edges are chipping. What should I do prevent them from falling off? Just to add, they are so small chips. Is tgere any other option other than skim or plasterboard? Can I just put pva to stick them back?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?
