Two plasterers can quote the same job — one leaves glass, the other leaves waves. Here’s what drives the difference in our work throughout Burchetts Green.
Years covering Burchetts Green from All Saints Church through Maidenhead Bridge to Maidenhead High Street 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.
Single feature walls, whole room transformations, awkward ceiling repairs, invisible patch blending — each job type brings its own challenges. Consistent quality across Burchetts Green comes from adapting methods to match conditions, not applying the same approach everywhere.
Burchetts Green housing runs mostly victorian terraces and semi-detached houses, ceilings around 2.5m to 2.9m (8.2ft – 9.5ft). Those property types share characteristics — similar wall construction, common problem areas, predictable preparation needs. Experience on this specific stock makes assessment faster and more accurate.
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.
First conversation focuses on understanding your walls — what’s on them now, what finish you’re after, how many rooms need attention. Based on that, assessment gets arranged at a time that suits. No pressure, no commitment until you’ve had surfaces checked properly and received clear 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.
Jobs get completed properly — thorough preparation, consistent application, finishing while timing allows. Work areas receive full protection, and thorough tidying follows completion. You receive specific guidance about drying requirements, mist coating, and when full decoration can begin.
People booking skimming want practical details — what’s involved, how long it takes, what happens after. Straight answers here, kept simple.
Completion time depends heavily on wall condition. Average bedroom on sound plaster takes roughly a day. Poor surfaces needing preparation work take longer — sometimes considerably. Ceiling work adds time. Assessment reveals what your walls actually require.
Some walls skim over existing surfaces, others need stripping — condition determines approach. Solid, well-attached plaster just needs keying. Blown areas, failed coats, or excessive thickness require removal. Assessment identifies what’s needed rather than guessing.
Skimming applies thin finish coats over prepared surfaces — creating smooth walls from existing plaster. Plastering includes thicker applications like base coats on bare walls, rendering, or depth building. Typical home re-finishing means skimming over what’s there, not starting from scratch.
Sometimes — it depends on paint type and surface preparation. Matt emulsion over sound plaster can receive skim after proper keying with coarse sandpaper or bonding agent. Gloss, silk, or multiple thick paint coats create adhesion problems — stripping or heavy preparation often necessary. Assessment determines what approach your painted walls need.
Allow proper drying before decoration — typically 2-4 days for surface drying in ventilated rooms, though full curing takes weeks. Apply mist coat first using diluted matt emulsion — this seals porous new plaster for proper paint adhesion. Decorating too early causes problems.
