What a plasterer does
On new walls plasterers fit and tape boards then skim over them. On old walls they may repair or replace failed plaster first.
Jobs people often ask plasterers to do:
- Skimming walls and ceilings
- Plastering a new extension
- Replacing lath and plaster ceilings
- Fitting coving and cornice
- Repairing cracks
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 whether the price covers boarding, scrim tape and preparation or only the skim coat.
- Lath and plaster ceilings in older houses can be repaired or boarded over. Ask which suits your ceiling.
- Ask how many days the work will take, and whether rooms can be used in the meantime.
