Cheap skimming costs more when you’re repainting rippled walls a year later. Here’s the detail on our quality-first approach across Woking Town Centre.
Working across Woking Town Centre for years means knowing property histories. The streets around Goldsworth Park Lake flooded in ’97. The estate near St Andrews Church had cavity wall insulation problems. The houses toward Woking Leisure Centre suffer from condensation. History affects wall condition.
Re-skimming old walls, smoothing over textured ceilings, finishing new extension boards, blending repairs into existing surfaces — different starting points need different approaches. We assess properly before mixing any plaster, ensuring preparation matches what Woking Town Centre walls actually need.
Woking Town Centre housing runs mostly modern estates and 1970s housing, ceilings around 2.4m to 2.6m (7.9ft – 8.5ft). 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.
Enquiries reach the plasterer personally — not intermediaries booking jobs they don’t understand. You discuss surface conditions with someone who’s seen thousands of walls and knows which need stripping, which need bonding, and which just need keying.
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 includes hands-on assessment — tapping hollow sections, testing suction, checking for blown areas, noting repair history. Preparation needs get explained simply. Pricing reflects genuine surface condition found on site.
Plastering gets completed properly — correct preparation, consistent application, careful finishing. Protection covers work areas throughout, and thorough tidying follows. Clear guidance covers drying stages, when emulsion misting should happen, and realistic decoration timelines.
Before plastering starts, most people want the same information — preparation, timelines, decoration timing. Here’s the clear, simple detail.
Skimming a standard room takes roughly a day on walls in reasonable condition. Poor surfaces needing bonding, repairs, or extensive preparation add significant time. Ceilings alongside walls extend the schedule. Accurate duration estimates follow from proper wall assessment.
Existing surface quality determines approach. Firmly bonded plaster skims over after keying. Blown areas, delaminated coats, or excessive previous layers need stripping. Assessment identifies which preparation each wall section requires.
Skim coats are thin finish layers — 2-3mm typically — applied over existing surfaces to create smooth walls. Plastering covers heavier applications including base coats on masonry, render work, or building depth. Most domestic work involves skimming existing plaster rather than full replastering.
Depends on the paint and what’s beneath. Thin matt emulsion over good plaster skims after proper keying preparation. Thick paint layers, gloss finishes, or silk coatings prevent proper adhesion — usually needing removal or bonding treatment. Assessment determines requirements for your surfaces.
Drying time depends on thickness, ventilation, and temperature. Surface usually ready for mist coating within 2-4 days, complete curing takes longer. Diluted emulsion first seals new plaster properly before full painting. Decorating too early causes problems.
