FAQ's
How do I prepare a room for plastering?
Clear furniture or cover it with sheets, remove loose plaster or wallpaper, and ensure walls are clean and dry. We then bead corners, tape joints and protect floors before mixing and applying coats.
How long does new plaster take to dry?
A skim coat usually dries in 2–5 days; deeper backing coats can take 5–10. Good ventilation (not direct heat) helps an even cure. Wait until uniformly pale before the mist coat.
What affects plastering cost?
Room size, surface condition (repairs, bonding), number of coats, access and any decorative work (coving). We give a clear itemised quote before starting so you know the scope.
Can you repair damaged or blown plaster?
Yes. We cut back to sound material, treat any underlying issues (damp or salts), re‑bond if needed then re‑skim for a seamless finish ready for painting.
What aftercare is required?
Allow natural drying; avoid high heat. Once pale, apply a mist coat (diluted emulsion) then your chosen finish. We provide simple care tips to keep the surface looking sharp.
Is your work guaranteed?
We provide a workmanship guarantee covering adhesion and finish quality. Guidance on drying and painting is included so you can maintain the surface correctly.
