Plastering across Great Harwood and nearby
I plaster in Great Harwood and the surrounding villages, including Clayton-le-Moors, Rishton, Church and Mellor. Older Great Harwood homes often have lath-and-plaster ceilings and walls that have moved over the years, so re-skimming and patching are bread-and-butter work for me. Being local means I can get over to look at the job and give you a straight quote without a long wait.
Common questions about plastering in Great Harwood
When can I decorate new plaster?
Fresh plaster has to dry right through first — anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks depending on conditions. Once it has turned an even, pale shade all over, it is ready for a coat of paint. I will give you a guide for your room.
Can you plaster over artex or textured walls?
In most cases, yes. If the surface is sound it can be skimmed over to give you a smooth, flat finish without the mess of taking the old texture off.
Will you do just a small repair?
Of course. Patching after a leak or a socket move, filling cracks or sorting a knocked corner are all jobs I am glad to take on, however small.
Is plastering messy?
I keep it tidy. Floors and furniture are covered, dust is kept down and everything is cleared away at the end, so you just get the fresh finish.
