Before you book a plasterer
- Textured coatings such as Artex applied before 2000 can contain asbestos. Do not sand or scrape them. Have a sample tested first.
- Ask if the plasterer protects floors and furniture, and who clears up the dust afterwards.
- Damp walls will not hold new plaster. If you can see tide marks or salts, have the cause looked at first.
- Ask how many days the work will take, and whether rooms can be used in the meantime.
