FAQs

Plastering services — common questions

Which plastering service do I need?+

If your walls are sound but tired, you need a re-skim. If plaster is blown or hollow, you need repairs or a float and set. Bare brick or new studwork needs plasterboarding and dry lining, textured ceilings need an artex over-skim, and tide marks or mould need a damp survey first.

Do you do both plastering and damp proofing?+

Yes — that combination is the point. Most damp jobs need replastering afterwards, so having one team diagnose, treat and finish avoids the gap between two trades.

Do you work for landlords and letting agents?+

Yes. We handle void-property turnarounds, tenant-damage make-good and scheduled maintenance across Greater Manchester, with invoices and reports suitable for agency records.

How is plastering work in Manchester quoted?+

Every job is quoted individually after a site visit. What matters is the size of the room, ceiling height, access and how much prep or repair work is needed — so you get a fixed written quote rather than a rough figure over the phone.

How long does a room take to plaster?+

Most single rooms are skimmed in one day. A full house re-skim usually takes 3-7 working days, and damp proofing with replastering typically takes 2-3 days per affected wall.

How long before I can paint new plaster?+

Allow 3-7 days for fresh plaster to dry fully — longer in winter or on damp-proofed walls, which can need 2-4 weeks. Once it is a uniform pale colour with no dark patches, start with a mist coat of watered-down emulsion (roughly 70% paint, 30% water).

Do I need to move out while you plaster?+

No. We work room by room, sheet everything down and keep dust to a minimum, so you can stay in the property throughout. We only ask that the room being worked in is cleared of small furniture.

Are you insured and do you guarantee your work?+

Yes — we are fully insured with public liability cover on every job, and all workmanship is guaranteed. Damp proofing treatments carry a longer written guarantee, explained in your quote.

Which areas of Manchester do you cover?+

We cover all of Greater Manchester, including Manchester city centre, Salford, Stockport, Trafford, Didsbury, Chorlton, Altrincham, Sale, Prestwich, Bury, Oldham, Ashton-under-Lyne, Urmston, Wilmslow and everywhere in between. There is no travel charge inside Greater Manchester.

Do you offer free quotes?+

Yes. We visit, measure up, talk through the finish you want and send a fixed written quote — no obligation and no charge. Quotes are valid for 60 days.

Do you clean up afterwards?+

Always. Floors and fittings are dust-sheeted before we mix, and all waste, old plaster and packaging is bagged and removed when we finish.
