Types of Plastering Work in London

Wall Skimming London

Wall skimming is the most common plastering job we carry out across London. It involves applying a thin finish coat of plaster over an existing surface to create a perfectly smooth wall. It's required after dry lining work, after removing old wallpaper, or when walls have become uneven over time.

Most London homes built before the 1980s have traditional sand and cement backgrounds with a lime or gypsum finish coat. Newer properties typically use plasterboard with a skim coat. Our plasterers are experienced with both, ensuring the right materials and technique for your specific property.

Ceiling Plastering & Repairs

Ceiling plaster repairs are extremely common in London's older housing stock. Cracks, staining, and falling plaster are frequent problems in Victorian and Edwardian properties. Our team provides complete ceiling plaster repairs, full ceiling re-skims, and plasterboard overlay where ceilings are beyond repair.

Water-damaged ceilings require careful assessment before plastering — we identify the cause before carrying out repairs to prevent recurrence.

Artex Covering London

Millions of London homes have Artex textured ceilings, particularly those built between the 1960s and 1980s. We offer two solutions: applying a thin skim coat directly onto sound Artex, or installing plasterboard over it for a guaranteed flat finish.

Our Artex covering service is available across all London boroughs. We advise on the best method for your specific situation after inspecting the existing Artex condition.

Full House Replastering London

A full house re-skim is a significant investment but transforms a property completely. After replastering, walls and ceilings are perfectly smooth, ready for painting or wallpapering. It's ideal before major renovation work, when preparing a property for sale, or when existing plaster is damaged throughout.

We complete full house re-skims across London, coordinating with decorators, electricians, and other trades to ensure the project runs smoothly. See our full house replastering guide for more detail.

Dry Lining & Plasterboarding London

Dry lining involves fixing plasterboard to walls and ceilings before applying a skim coat. It's faster than traditional plastering, provides thermal and acoustic insulation, and is essential for extensions, loft conversions, and new partition walls. We install plasterboard using dab and dot, stud frame, and direct bonding methods depending on the situation.

Rendering London

External rendering protects and improves the appearance of external walls. We carry out sand and cement render, monocouche render, and lime render for period properties across London. Internal rendering is also available for basements and damp-prone areas.
