Our Services

We offer a wide range of plastering services including:

• Skimming: Plaster skimming to plasterboards is a popular method of providing a smooth, seamless surface ready to receive decorative treatment. Skim plastering gives many of the advantages of a traditional solid plaster finish combined with a quick turnaround.

• Rendering: The application of a premixed layer of sand and cement to brick, cement, stone, or mud brick. It is often textured, coloured, or painted after application. It is generally used on exterior walls but can be used to feature an interior wall.

• Dry Walling: Dry walling (also known as plasterboarding) is used to make interior walls and ceilings which are then plastered/skimmed.

• Floor Screeding: Screeding a floor is the simple act of applying cement, aggregates, and water to a floor base in order to form a sturdy sub-floor that is capable of taking on the final floor finish or act as a final wearing surface.

• Coving: Coving, as with skirting boards and architraves, can add a finishing touch to a room as well as having some other hidden benefits including adding a simple and cost-effective decorative touch to rooms, available in a variety of styles to suit any room, helping to hide cracks along ceiling lines, and hiding electrical cables and pipes behind it, as well as untidy surround sound wires.

• Artex Removal: Artex is a surface coating used for interior decorating, often found on ceilings, which allows the decorator to add a texture to it. Until the mid-80's, artex coating was made with white asbestos to strengthen it. Whilst all artex applied after around 1990 does not contain asbestos, there are still health risks involved with removing it.
