Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers for homeowners comparing plasterers.

How much does plastering cost in the UK?
Plastering costs vary depending on the room size, wall condition and the type of finish required. Skimming a single room will usually cost less than full re-plastering, while repairs, rendering and decorative finishes are priced separately. The best way to get an accurate price is to request quotations from several local plasterers.
What's the difference between skimming and plastering?
Skimming is the process of applying a thin finishing coat of plaster over existing walls or plasterboard to create a perfectly smooth surface. Full plastering may involve removing old plaster, repairing damaged walls and applying new base and finishing coats.
Can plasterers repair cracked walls and ceilings?
Yes. Professional plasterers regularly repair cracks, blown plaster, damaged ceilings and holes caused by electrical or plumbing work. They'll assess the cause of the damage before carrying out a long-lasting repair.
Can a plasterer skim over artex ceilings?
In many cases, yes. A plasterer can often prepare and skim over existing artex ceilings to create a smooth modern finish. Older artex may contain asbestos, so testing is recommended before any work begins if the ceiling dates from before the late 1990s.
What's the difference between plastering and rendering?
Plastering is generally carried out on internal walls and ceilings, while rendering is applied to external walls using weather-resistant materials that protect and improve the appearance of the property.
Can plasterers install coving and decorative mouldings?
Many plasterers install traditional plaster coving, ceiling roses, cornices and decorative mouldings as part of renovation or restoration projects.
