Transforming a Family Bathroom in Honeybourne – Artex Removal & Skimming by Cooper Plastering
At Cooper Plastering, we take pride in helping homeowners achieve smooth, modern surfaces by removing outdated or damaged plaster and ceilings. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Georgia and Dan, a hardworking couple who run a successful dog walking business in Honeybourne. They wanted to update their family bathroom, starting with the ceiling, which was covered in an old, spiky Artex finish.
Tackling the Artex Ceiling
Artex ceilings were once a popular design choice, but for many homeowners today, they can feel outdated and difficult to maintain. Georgia and Dan’s bathroom had a particularly tough case of Artex—thick, spiked, and heavily textured, making the removal process more challenging than usual. However, our experienced team at Cooper Plastering was well-equipped for the task.
The process began with a thorough assessment of the ceiling. Due to the depth of the Artex texture, we opted to carefully knock down the high spots first to create a more even surface. Once that was completed, we applied a bonding PVA solution to the entire ceiling, ensuring the plaster would adhere properly and provide a smooth, flawless finish.
Skimming to Perfection
With the ceiling prepped and ready, we applied two coats of Gypsum Multi-Finish plaster, skillfully smoothing it out to eliminate any remaining imperfections. This technique results in a sleek, modern surface that is perfect for painting after 5–7 days of drying time. Once fully dry, Georgia and Dan can now choose their ideal shade to complete the transformation of their bathroom.
A Speedy & Efficient Process
One of the things Georgia and Dan appreciated most was the speed of our work. Many plasterers had told them this job would take two days, but thanks to our efficient methods and expertise, we were able to complete everything in just one long day. This meant minimal disruption to their home and business schedule, a key benefit for any busy household.
Testimonial from Georgia & Dan
“We were so impressed with Cooper Plastering! From the start, Andrew was professional, informative, and gave us a fair price for the work. The job was booked in quickly, and on the day, they arrived on time, worked tirelessly, and left everything spotless. The transformation of our bathroom ceiling is incredible – it’s completely smooth and looks brand new. We’re really happy with the result and would 100% recommend Cooper Plastering to anyone needing plastering work done. Fantastic service all around!”
