Example work, explained
Making good a damaged plaster wall
- The problem
- Loose, blown or damaged plaster leaves an uneven surface that paint cannot reliably cover. The condition of the background matters as much as the visible patch.
- The work involved
- Once moisture sources and material concerns are addressed, protect the room, prepare the affected area and reinstate the agreed plaster finish with suitable materials.
- Checks and next steps
- Check the repaired area and its edges, explain drying and decoration requirements, and identify whether painting is included or needs a separate visit.

About neighbourhoods and postcode matching
August 2026 ONS postcode data identifies boroughs sharing an outward district. Named centres use London Plan references; neighbourhood postcode examples use local address sources. Neither defines an exact neighbourhood boundary. Even a full postcode entered here is matched only by its first part.
Where a dedicated local service guide is available, we link to it. Other places lead to the relevant borough guide with your selected area carried into the enquiry. Your full repair address is needed when arranging attendance.

Questions about plasterers, plaster repairs & skimming
Can you skim over any existing wall finish?
No. Suitability depends on the existing material, adhesion and condition. Unsound or incompatible finishes may need preparation or removal.
Is painting included with plaster repairs?
Only if the quotation includes it. Plaster needs suitable drying and preparation before decoration; we can quote the repair and finishing stages together.
How much does wall skimming cost?
Room size, preparation, access and background condition affect price. We provide a quote including VAT for the agreed work.
Do you cover all of London?
Yes. We cover all 32 London boroughs and the City of London. Select a borough below or include your full postcode when requesting a quote. The appointment depends on the required work and available specialist.
