Restoring Wall & Ceiling Surfaces
Wanting to decorate, but the walls or ceilings are showing signs of wear and tear, knocks, cracks, drill holes or the various damaging effects of removing fittings, tiles, Artex or wallpaper?
It is common in a property of a certain age to have this kind of minor damage in the surfaces of walls and ceilings. Whilst filling and rubbing down can deal with the odd blemish, when the damage has gone so far it needs the skill of a professional plasterer. At GPL Plasterers, this is something that we have extensive experience in and can usually put right the damage to the surface and restore the line of a wall or ceiling by skimming the surface.
Our skilled plasterers use skimming techniques to fill and smooth the surfaces, cover a multitude of unsightly damage and blemishes, returning your walls and ceilings to their former glory, creating a smooth surface with crisp clean lines ready for decorating.
Skimming Plasterboard Surfaces
One of the main uses of skimming is to create a smooth finish over plasterboard wall installations and ceilings, which are often fitted as part of home modifications and extensions. Skimming is also used on stud wall installations which are used to create separate living spaces or as part of fitting-out a loft conversion.
Plasterboard and studwork installation is another of the services we offer as part of our plaster works. You might find it useful to speak to use before making any decisions on stud wall and ceiling installations, as we can provide a completely seamless service.
Once the studwork and plasterboard is in place, skimming is used to create the final smooth surface, concealing the joins between the boards, cut-outs and frames.
