What is the best pain for new plaster
Had the walls skimmed and I’ve never painted new plaster before. Do I need a special kind of paint or can I just use normal emulsion?
Cracks in plaster after heatwave
Cracks have appeared in our plaster after the heatwave, is this due to the heat or just a coincidence?
Whats needed to fix this plastering job
Ive recently had a plasterer in to skim my media wall. Had to get him back as there were a few holes etc and he came back and sorted. Everything looked alright but when it came to painting I realised that all the edges inside the alcoves are essentially squiggly and you can visibly see high spots as well. Is this an easy fix?
Coving delivery left in rain ruined?
If a coving delivery was left out in the rain before I took in, would it be ruined?
Can I check out coving products in person?
Do most coving providers have a showroom? I'd ideally like to be able to check out different coving designs and styles in person before making a decision?
Filling a dent in plasterwork
The wall of our hallway has been knocked with a bike handlebar and it's left a dent. Some of the dented plaster is loose. Should I remove this before filling?
How to fix a hole in the ceiling plasterboard
Can a ceiling plasterboard hole be repaired without replacing the board? It’s not massive, but it’s definitely noticeable, and I’d rather avoid cutting big sections out if there’s a cleaner fix that’ll still look decent once painted. Wondering also will this fix be something you can spot after a few months. Someone I told it about at work mentioned that I might have to replace the whole thing to get it looking right?!
What are cornices?
Hi, what are cornices exactly and what are they used for?
