Professional wall re-skimming solves surface problems that paint alone can’t fix. Rough textures, visible repairs, and uneven plaster need proper skim coating to create smooth, consistent walls. Skilled tradesmen assess conditions, prepare surfaces correctly, and apply quality finishes that hide imperfections completely — delivering walls ready for any decorative treatment you’re planning.
Expert ceiling skimming handles textured surfaces that paint alone can’t fix. Artex patterns, stippled finishes, and rough plaster need professional skim coating to create flat, contemporary ceilings. Skilled tradesmen prepare surfaces correctly, apply even coverage overhead, and finish to high standards — ceilings transformed and ready for decoration.
Quality patch skimming makes damage disappear without extensive replastering work. Cable routes, fixture removal, impact holes, and localised cracking all respond to targeted repairs that blend invisibly. Experienced plasterers match existing textures, feather edges carefully, and finish seamlessly — patches that stay hidden and eliminate the need for larger-scale work.
New extension finishing requires quality plastering that transforms raw plasterboard into smooth living spaces.

Cheap skimming costs more when you’re repainting rippled walls a year later. Here’s the detail on our quality-first approach across St. Davids City Centre.
Years covering St. Davids City Centre from Milford Marina through St Katharines Church to Hamilton Terrace builds genuine understanding. You learn which developers cut corners, which streets have damp problems, which estates used experimental materials. That insight prevents problems before they start.
Some walls need PVA, some need bonding, some just need a wipe down. Ceilings that look sound can be ready to delaminate. We check everything first across St. Davids City Centre — proper assessment prevents the callbacks that rushed preparation causes.
St. Davids City Centre properties feature mainly georgian townhouses and victorian terraced houses, ceilings around 2.6m to 2.9m (8.5ft – 9.5ft). That housing consistency means we’ve solved the same problems repeatedly — knowledge that transfers directly to your walls.
When you call, the plasterer picks up — same person who’ll read your walls and make preparation decisions on site. That means proper discussion about surface condition, realistic expectations, and what’s actually involved in getting smooth results.
Initial chat covers what you’re dealing with — wall condition, finish requirements, known issues. The plasterer uses this to understand scope, then arranges assessment at convenient timing for thorough surface evaluation and detailed pricing.
Wall inspection covers everything relevant — structural soundness, surface adhesion, previous repair quality, moisture levels. The plasterer explains preparation needs in plain terms. Pricing reflects what your walls actually require, not generic per-metre rates.
Plastering happens systematically — correct preparation, even application, timely finishing. Work areas get protected properly, and thorough cleanup occurs after. Clear information covers drying periods, when to apply mist coats, and how soon decoration can follow.
Before plastering starts, most people want the same information — preparation, timelines, decoration timing. Here’s the clear, simple detail.
Completion time varies with surface condition rather than room size alone. Average bedroom on decent plaster takes a day. Walls requiring stripping, bonding, or substantial prep work take longer. Ceiling inclusion adds time. Assessment provides realistic scheduling for your particular surfaces.
Surface condition governs preparation requirements. Well-bonded existing plaster takes skim coats directly. Blown sections need removal. Thick previous coats sometimes require stripping. Assessment identifies what your walls actually need rather than assuming worst-case scenarios.
Skimming applies thin finish layers over existing prepared surfaces. Plastering covers broader scope — base coats on masonry, render application, building depth. Typical home work involves skim finishing over existing plaster rather than full plastering systems from bare walls.
Some painted walls skim directly, others need preparation. Matt emulsion over sound plaster takes skim after keying. Gloss, silk, or heavy paint buildup creates adhesion issues — often requiring stripping or bonding agent application. Assessment identifies what your painted walls specifically need.
Allow surfaces to dry properly before painting — 2-4 days minimum in ventilated rooms, though complete curing takes 2-3 weeks. Apply mist coat first with watered-down emulsion. Early decoration causes peeling and blistering issues.
