Our Core Plastering Services

Plastering & Skimming
Plastering is at the heart of what we do. A smooth, well-finished surface is the foundation of any decorating project, so we treat it with the importance it deserves.
- What We Do: We skim new or existing surfaces with a fine, even layer of plaster to achieve that smooth, paint-ready finish.
- Who It’s For: Homeowners undergoing renovations, extensions, plastering repairs, or simply refreshing a room that has old, damaged, or poor-quality finishes.
- How We Do It: We use high-quality materials and a multi-stage application process to eliminate marks, ripples, or inconsistencies for a long-lasting, durable finish.

Dry Lining Installation
Dry lining offers a quick, clean and modern way to build or cover walls and ceilings using plasterboards.
- What We Do: We install dry lining walls and ceilings in new builds, extensions and garage conversions that creates smooth surfaces ready for skimming.
- Who It’s For: Those building new interior partitions, lining out a newly constructed space, or seeking better thermal or acoustic performance from their walls.
- How We Do It: We ensure all joints are taped, screwed and filled correctly to create a seamless surface that is ready for the final finish.

Precision Dot and Dab
Dot and dab is a specialist dry lining method that bonds plasterboards directly to existing masonry walls.
- What We Do: We use a ‘dot and dab’ technique, which means applying adhesive dabs to the wall and pressing the plasterboards into place. This is to quickly and effectively line brick or blockwork.
- Who It’s For: Homeowners needing to rapidly cover uneven masonry walls, particularly in older homes or new extensions where a timber frame is not required.
- How We Do It: We carefully calculate the dabs’ positions to ensure a perfectly straight, level wall. This saves space and provides a neat finish.

Seamless Plaster Repairs
The skill of an experienced plasterer really shows in their ability to undertake plaster repairs. The aim is to make the damage disappear completely – here’s how we work our magic.
- What We Do: We expertly repair all forms of damage, including deep plaster hole repair, hairline and significant cracks in plaster, water damage restoration and the fixing of debonded (blown) plaster.
- Who It’s For: Anyone needing tidy repairs after plumbing or electrical work, or restoring older walls that have deteriorated with time.
- How We Do It: We treat the underlying issue, prep the area properly and blend the repair into the surrounding wall so it looks like it was never there.

Specialist Decorative Finishes
You can elevate your walls and ceilings with our range of high-end decorative plastering techniques, designed to combine style, texture, and durability.
- What We Do: We provide premium finishes such as venetian plaster, microcement, tadelakt and silicone render. These finishes add depth, texture, and visual impact to both interior and exterior surfaces.
- Who It’s For: Homeowners and businesses who want their walls, ceilings, or feature areas to stand out.
- How We Do It: We prime and prepare the surfaces, apply each layer meticulously, and complete the finish with refined textures or polished effects.
