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?

"Hi I would suggest without seeing it in person it would need to be re beaded and re skimmed as you cannot patch plaster once it’s been finished hope that helped"

"Hi Connor.
As the previous answer explained. Unfortunately the only right way is to re bead and re skim as you won't be able to re create nice crisp straight lines filling and patching."
