    hi,

    I had a small leak from my shower that dripped through the ceiling into the living room. All this has now been fixed but I now have a bit of artex missing where water damage made it flake off. I've looked around and the smallest artex pack I can find is 25 kilos!!

    I was thinking that I could just use some polyfilla (watered down to allow for easier matching of the textured effect).

    anyone have any better ideas?

    I'm sure bnq do small tubs of ready-mixed artex, especially for patching.




    Mr. Handyandy - really

    Buy the 25Kg, weigh it before and after use, add aggregate an push down to bottom of bin, take it back nice and clean the same day, and say I dont need it:):)
