Good to know

Plastering and Skimming in City of London — 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.

How much should I budget for plasterers in City of London?

Every job is priced individually on size, surface condition and finish. Send a few photos of your City of London property on WhatsApp for a free fixed quote — usually the same day, with no hidden extras.

Which parts of City of London do you cover?

All of it — City of London (EC2V) is fully inside our patch, along with Guildhall, Bassishaw, Cheap, Cheapside. If you're on the border of two areas, don't worry: the same local team covers both.
