“Great experience all round. Alex, Lotte and the team were skilled, knowledgeable, polite and hard working. We had old pebble dashing replaced with cladding, a stud wall removed, loft insulation and boarding installed and some general repairs. the team handled it all brilliantly and we'll 100% be coming back when we have more work. Highly recommended.”

What does skimming mean in plastering?
Skimming is the process of applying a thin layer of finishing plaster over existing walls or ceilings to create a smooth surface.
It’s often used to cover cracks, artex or uneven plaster before decorating.

Tip: Check out our skimming cost guide for a full rundown on prices.
Can you skim over old plaster?
Yes, skimming over old plaster is common – as long as the surface is stable and properly prepared.
Loose plaster, damp or deep cracks may need repairs before skimming begins.
Tip: Thinking about taking on the job yourself? Our handy how-to guide to skimming takes you through the process.
How do I know if my walls need skimming?
You may need skimming if your walls have:
- Cracks or flaking plaster
- Uneven or patchy surfaces
- Old artex or textured finishes
- Visible repairs that show through paint
Contact a plasterer covering Robertsbridge to confirm whether skimming is doable for your home.
Can you paint directly onto skimmed plaster?
