How to repair an Artexed ceiling
I recently decorated a room for a client, part of the job was to repair an Artexed ceiling where the joint tape had come away for whatever reason, either previous water damage or simply failed tape.
I decided to make a video showing how I repaired the ceiling and through to its completion, painted.
So here is the short video showing the steps taken from start to finish.
The same principles can be applied for Artexed walls also.
You may also want to read this article, How To Remove Artex, specifically the section headed “Artex And Health Issues” especially if you have older Artex in your house.

Dunlop Pro Decor
After I was recently asked by Dunlop to do a review of Dunlop Pro Decor Flexible Acrylic Filler on this blog the post has beem well received and I was contacted via my twitter account this month and asked if they could use a quote from my review on some of there marketing counter top displays.
I of course said yes, the filler is a great product and it does as it claims. I have been impressed with the results I get from it, and pleased to have my name and website on their point of sale display.
Look out for it in a store near you or at a trade day.
