Glass-smooth walls, ready to decorate
Skimming applies a thin coat of finishing plaster over existing surfaces or new boards. Re-skimming transforms uneven, patched, or dated walls into one continuous, level plane. We work carefully around fixtures and edges, control suction on different backgrounds, and leave your rooms ready for mist coat and colour.
— How we work
Prep first, then perfection
We assess every wall for movement, damp, and key before we skim. Loose material is removed, joints and fastener heads are dealt with, and priming or bonding is applied where the substrate needs it. That groundwork is what makes the final skim durable and free from map cracking or drummy patches.
