Good to know

Plastering and Skimming in Monument — 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.

Are you insured to work in Monument?

Yes — every job in Monument 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.

Are you local to Monument?

Yes — we're a local team covering Monument (EC4R) and the surrounding area, including Candlewick, Langbourn, Billingsgate, Dowgate. That means a nearby crew, fast quotes and flexible dates with no travel premium.
