Southampton plastering and rendering

Still have a question?

Do you plaster and render in Shirley, Portswood, Bitterne and Woolston?

Yes, we plaster inside and render outside in Shirley, Portswood, Bitterne and Woolston, and in Southampton postcodes SO14, SO15, SO16, SO17, SO18 and SO19. Render means a sand and cement coat on an outside wall. A small ceiling patch and a whole house are both jobs we take on in those areas.

Can wall and ceiling repairs in Southampton fix a crack and keep the rest of the ceiling?

Yes, wall and ceiling repairs in Southampton cut out a crack where the plaster is still firm, fill the gap and skim only that patch. That skim is a thin finishing coat which we blend into the sound plaster around it. Where the plaster has lost its grip, we clear the loose part, build the patch back up and blend that same thin coat into the firm edge.

Can you skim new plasterboard and painted walls in Southampton?

Yes, skimming and re-skimming in Southampton puts a finishing coat over a whole wall or a whole ceiling, including painted walls. We put two thin coats on new plasterboard so the joints disappear. Where the wall is painted, we brush bonding agent on first, and that agent is a preparatory coat which lets fresh plaster grip a slick surface.

How does plasterboard and dry lining work in Southampton?

Plasterboard and dry lining in Southampton means we fix boards to a timber frame or bond them to the wall, rather than spreading wet plaster straight onto brick. We tape every join and fill it, then skim the boards into one continuous face. On a ceiling we screw the boards to the joists and add a metal bead, a metal trim that keeps the corner straight.

Will Artex removal and smoothing in Southampton leave the old pattern visible?

No, Artex removal and smoothing in Southampton buries the pattern under plaster, and we trowel that coat flat. Artex is a raised coating, in swirls, stipples or fans, on ceilings and on walls. A deep texture needs more plaster to fill than a shallow texture, and the flat surface is then ready to paint.
