Questions

Plastering: common questions

How long before I can paint new plaster?

Fresh plaster needs to dry out fully before painting, which usually takes a few days to a couple of weeks depending on conditions. We will tell you what to expect for your job.

Can you cover artex?

Yes. We can skim straight over artex to give you a smooth, modern finish without the cost of removing it.

Do you do plastering and painting together?

We do. Having the same team plaster and then decorate keeps the job simple and the finish consistent.
