What Our Clients Say About Global Plastering

"Excellent work the team removing our old 1970's cladding and replacing it with insulation and a rendered finish. The job went smooth from start to finish with all old materials removed from site. We are very pleased with the end result and would thoroughly recommend Global Plastering."

A. Jenkins (Ferndale)

"Dilwyn and his team were brilliant and made a lovely job of our EWI. They were very friendly, hard-working, and left no mess at the end of each day. Our house looks great and we can definitely feel the benefits of the insulation already. I'm very glad we chose EWI especially with energy costs as they are now."

G. Toogood (Bristol)

"Charlotte and the team were professional, reliable, and excellent at communicating throughout. They did a fantastic job of skimming and rendering the back of our house during our renovation. Superb quality of work and highly recommended!"

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional plastering, skimming, and interior finishing services across South Wales and South West England and South Wales.

Why Choose Global Plastering for Your Project?

+

Choosing a contractor can be daunting. We make the decision easy by backing up our work with industry-recognised credentials. We are fully PAS 2030 compliant and PAS accredited, which means our quality management and technical skills meet the highest national standards.
Because we operate alongside Global Energy Insulation, we don't just look at the surface of your walls; we understand the "whole house" approach. If your walls are cold or damp, we can advise on internal wall insulation (IWI) before we plaster, helping you save money on energy bills while we improve your home. We are also CHAS accredited and carry full public liability insurance, giving you total peace of mind while we are on-site. Our history of handling complex retrofit projects means we are used to working to strict deadlines and high standards.

Can you skim over old artex ceilings?

+

Yes, we can. If the artex is in good condition and firmly attached, we can apply a bonding coat and then skim over it to create a smooth, modern finish. If the artex is very heavy or loose, we may recommend over-boarding with new plasterboard before skimming for the best result.

How long does it take for new plaster to dry before I can paint?

+

This depends on the time of year and the ventilation in the room. Generally, you should wait about 3 to 5 days for a skim coat to turn a consistent light pink colour. For thicker plastering or dry-lining, it may take a bit longer. We always recommend using a "mist coat" (thinned-down paint) for your first layer once it is dry.

Do I need to remove my skirting boards before you plaster?

+

It isn't always necessary, but it often results in a neater finish if you do. If you are planning on replacing your skirting anyway, it is best to take them off first. If you want to keep them, we can plaster down to the top of the existing boards with a tidy, professional edge.

What is the difference between plastering and skimming?

+

Plastering is a general term that covers the whole process, including applying thick base coats or fixing boards. Skimming is the final stage where we apply a thin, 2mm layer of finishing plaster to create the smooth surface you see on a finished wall.
