Millions of people would have to double their incomes to escape financial hardship, says anti-poverty charity Joseph Rowntree Foundation in a new report published today.

The asbestos removal technique is removing the asbestos Artex with minimal damage to the concrete surface. Initally I was digging in too deep and cutting past the artex into the plasterboard - this meant dust was coming down which was worrying (given the asbestos) but after some practice I managed to avoid digging in too deep. So, in a bid to combine fitness with frugality, I've rounded up 20 ways you can exercise and get fit without spending a penny, both outdoors and at home.After some messing around I was reasonably confident the dust was from the plasterboard and not the artex - the artex becomes like a wet gloopy thing - bag it up as you go as it gets messy (and have dust sheets down). After every our knuckle was ripped, every expletive expleted, and every pet in hiding we decided to chip it away.

Complete removal: Not an easy solution, this method involves completely removing the Artex and original plasterboard. The other is through chemical gel application which when left to soak allows the asbestos Artex to be scraped away. This is when we decided to invest in a proper artex remover and save ourselves days of endless scraping.

Our site test was done directly onto plasterboard which is the most temperamental of surfaces and apart from a couple of small “nicks” which can be easily filled, the surface was absolutely ideal for painting or plastering afterwards. You will find that sometimes if a bit comes off you can carefully pull it - pulling off large amounts of artex at the same time - avoid scraping off little bits at a time. tub on, waited a few hours and started to scrape the artex was still hard and now the ceiling was covered in a sticky,messy,gluey gloop. Cos even if we had known about the asbestos this Artex remover will easily strip without chips or dust.

I also tried to sand it off but the results were even worse than with water – the sanding did absolutely nothing. If you need a little help then we also have an active question and answer forum and a find a trademan service and much more. I don't think that it contains asbestos as the house is quite new, but would like to have a go at removing it.Once confirmed that the artex® does not contain asbestos fibres and can be removed safely with no risk there are a number of different ways this can be done.
