See prices guidePlastering and Skimming in Gascoigne — 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 soon can you start in Gascoigne?
Smaller Gascoigne jobs can often start within the week; larger projects are usually booked one to three weeks out. Tell us your dates and we'll be straight about what's realistic.
Do you cover the rest of Barking and Dagenham?
Yes — Gascoigne is part of our coverage across the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, alongside Fresh Wharf, Barking Town Centre, Barking Wharf, Barking. One local team, one standard, across the whole borough.

Yes — every job in Gascoigne is carried out by decorators with public liability insurance. Need documentation for a landlord, agent or building manager? Just ask and we'll provide it.
