Why Choose Our Wall & Ceiling Plastering Services?

How can I get a smooth finish on my old walls?

If your walls are showing their age with cracks, chips, or a generally uneven texture, skimming or re-skimming is often the most effective solution. Skimming involves applying a thin, finishing layer of plaster over existing walls or new plasterboard to create a perfectly flat and durable surface.This is a popular choice for Wishaw residents looking to modernise their interiors without the need for a full tear-down. Our team ensures that every corner is crisp and every surface is level, removing the imperfections that paint alone cannot hide. Whether you are prepping a nursery or updating your lounge, we provide the flawless base you need.

Professional Ceiling Plastering and Artex Removal in Wishaw

Ceilings are often the most difficult part of a room to get right, but they make a huge impact on the overall feel of a space.

Our Artex removal and covering services are designed to bring your home into the 21st century, replacing heavy patterns with clean, smooth lines.Removing Artex requires care and expertise to ensure a safe and level result.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our expert wall and ceiling plastering services in Lanark, Scotland

How much does it cost to have a room skimmed in South Lanarkshire?

+

The price depends on the size of the room and what state the walls are in. If the old plaster is falling off, it takes a bit more work than just a quick skim over new boards. We always come out to see the job first so we can give you a fair and honest price that stays fixed.

Can you get rid of dated Artex ceilings in my home?

+

Yes, we do this all the time. Many older houses in Lanark have that heavy texture on the ceilings. We can either scrape it back and skim over it or, if it’s very deep, we might suggest over-boarding with new plasterboard first. This gives you a perfectly flat, modern look without the mess of trying to sand it down.

How long does it take for new plaster to dry before I can paint?

+

It depends on the time of year and how warm your house is. Usually, a skim coat takes about three to five days to turn from a dark brown to a light pink colour. Once it is a uniform pale pink, it is ready for a mist coat and your final paint. We will give you advice on how to look after it while it dries.

What is the best way to repair holes or cracks in my plasterboard?

+

For small cracks, a bit of tape and a patch of plaster usually does the trick. If there is a big hole from a leak or an accident, we cut out the damaged bit and put in a new piece of board before skimming it. When we are finished, you will not even be able to tell where the damage was.

Is dry lining better than traditional two-coat plastering?

+

Dry lining is often quicker and cleaner because we fix plasterboards to the walls and then skim over them. It is great for insulation and getting a flat finish on wonky old masonry. Traditional two-coat work is still brilliant for certain repairs or when you want that solid, old-school feel. We can look at your walls and tell you which way is best for your project.
