Give your decorating a better starting point
A smooth, stable surface helps paint and wallpaper look their best. We help Wheathampstead homeowners with plaster repairs and skimming, selecting the method according to the state of the existing wall or ceiling.
Suitable repairs, not guesswork
Some surfaces only need a local repair; others are too uneven or damaged for a small patch to blend in. We explain the practical options before work begins so you can make an informed choice.
We provide plastering, skimming and repair work in Wheathampstead, with recommendations based on the surface and your planned finish.

Looking After New Plaster
Allow the plaster to dry naturally with reasonable ventilation. Avoid strong direct heat and wait until the surface is fully dry before painting or wallpapering. Drying time varies with thickness and room conditions, and the preparation should suit the chosen decorating product.
