Hello

I have had the artex ceiling removed by an asbestos contractor. See photo

Should/ can I remove the lathes on the ceiling in preparation for a plasterboard ceiling.

Should I point the walls before plastering

Laths don't need to be removed unless they impede the fitting of new boards, and walls don't need pointing unless there are loose bricks.
