Plastering and East Kilbride homes

East Kilbride was Scotland's first post-war new town (designated in 1947), so most houses date from the 1950s to the 1990s: ex-council terraces and flats in the Murray, Westwood and Calderwood, private estates such as Stewartfield and Lindsayfield, and new builds at Jackton.

Artex ceilings are common in homes from this era. Artex applied before 2000 can contain asbestos, so get it tested before sanding or scraping.
Ex-council houses from the 1960s–90s often have artex ceilings, and artex applied before 2000 may contain asbestos. Test before sanding or scraping.
Newer homes are mostly plasterboard, so common jobs are skimming, patching settlement cracks and boarding lofts.

Areas covered include Town Centre, The Village, Westwood, Calderwood, Greenhills, St Leonards, Stewartfield, East Mains, Murray, Lindsayfield, Jackton, Hairmyres. Local authority: South Lanarkshire Council.
