Good to know

Plastering and Skimming in New Southgate — FAQs.

Do I need plastering or just filling?

If damage is localised — a few cracks or holes — filling and sanding is cheaper and we'll say so. Widespread cracking, blown patches or heavy texture usually mean a skim is the honest fix. Send photos and we'll tell you straight.

How soon can new plaster be painted?

Typically 4–7 days depending on conditions, and it must be mist-coated with watered-down emulsion first. We build that into the schedule so the paint finish lasts.

Can you get rid of an artex ceiling?

Yes — over-skimming is the standard, safe approach and leaves a flat modern ceiling. Older artex can contain asbestos, so we never sand it; skimming seals it safely.

Can I book an evening or weekend slot in New Southgate?

Yes — we work 7 days a week, and out-of-hours slots are standard for New Southgate businesses and busy households alike.

Which parts of New Southgate do you cover?

All of it — New Southgate (N11) is fully inside our patch, along with Arnos Grove, Friern Barnet, Colney Hatch, Bounds Green. If you're on the border of two areas, don't worry: the same local team covers both.
