  • Hard wall plastering is a durable method of applying thick plaster layers, creating a strong, long-lasting finish. Ideal for high-traffic areas, it smooths uneven surfaces and adds structural integrity.

    In barn conversions, hard plastering transforms rough stone or brick walls into smooth, modern interiors while preserving character. It provides a breathable finish that helps regulate moisture, prevents damp issues, and enhances insulation, making barns more comfortable and energy-efficient.

  • Plaster skimming is a technique used to create a smooth, flawless finish on walls and ceilings. It involves applying a thin coat of finishing plaster over existing plaster, drywall, or rough surfaces.

    Skimming is ideal for covering imperfections, cracks, or uneven textures, providing a fresh base for painting or wallpapering. It enhances durability while improving the aesthetic appeal of interiors. Suitable for both renovations and new builds, it ensures a polished, professional look. Skimmed surfaces dry to a smooth, even texture, ready for decoration.

  • Plasterboarding involves creating a wooden framework and fixing plasterboards to this frame. Used for wall or ceilings to create a smooth, even surface. It is a quick and efficient method for covering brick, block, or timber frameworks.

    Plasterboard provides insulation, soundproofing, and fire resistance, making it a practical choice for modern construction. Once taped and jointed it is skimmed with plaster for a flawless finish. Suitable for both renovations and new builds, plasterboarding speeds up the interior finishing process. Once installed, it creates a solid base for painting, wallpapering, or tiling.

  • Coving installation enhances interiors by creating a smooth transition between walls and ceilings, adding a decorative and elegant touch.

    I also offer a coving repair service, restoring cracks, gaps, or loose sections to restore its original look. This may include reattaching pieces, filling imperfections for a flawless finish.

  • This process involves sticking plasterboard directly to the brick or stonework using plasterboard adhesive. Because there is no need for a wooden frame to be built it reduces wasted room space.
