Project H: The Prepping

The asbestos test results have come back: the ceilings are fine, but the board under the stairs contains CHR asbestos (i.e. white, which is the best case scenario). So that board will need to be replaced once I am mostly done with the hallway and am ready to start with the stairs. So that's probably going to be a side-job during the bathroom project.
On Thursday, I've got a plasterer coming around for a quote for both ceilings and one for walls and ceilings.
Walls: cleared (apart from that one corner I can't reach as I am not a giraffe).
Ceiling upstairs: see Walls.
Ceiling downstairs: ...yah, no. Artex straight on either plywood or plasterboard, so that will have to be skimmed and replastered as I can even get through it with a skimming knife.
Tomorrow:
- Washing the walls with sugar soap.
- Finish setting up a new bank account for finances.
