Understanding the work
Plaster and render systems need suitable underlying surfaces. A smooth final finish depends on preparation, compatibility with the existing material and appropriate drying or curing conditions.
What your project may involve
- Internal plaster repairs, patching and skimming.
- Preparation of walls and ceilings following alterations or service work.
- External rendering options subject to the condition of the substrate.
Important considerations
- Investigate damp, loose backgrounds and existing cracking before covering them.
- Check material compatibility and whether reinforcement or specialist systems are needed.
- Allow adequate drying time before painting or other finishes.
Requirements depend on the property and the proposed work. Technical advice, statutory approvals or specialist trades may be needed before construction proceeds.
What to have ready
Photographs showing the whole wall and close-ups of damage are helpful. Explain whether the surface is new, previously plastered or affected by moisture.
