Our primary trade
Plastering for repairs, fresh rooms and renovations.
Plastering remains the core of MF’s work. Whether you are updating a bedroom, repairing a ceiling or bringing older walls back into condition, Matt assesses the surfaces and explains what preparation is needed.
Ceiling overboarding
Where the existing ceiling and supports are suitable, plasterboarding and skimming can provide a fresh surface. We assess the condition, fixing requirements and any fittings before agreeing the work.
Plaster repairs
Local patches after electrical work, removed fixtures, leaks or damaged plaster. Loose areas are identified so the repair can be properly prepared and finished into the surrounding surface.
Damaged-wall preparation
Older walls may need loose plaster cut out, patches repaired or uneven areas brought into shape before skimming. The required preparation is discussed and included in the written scope.
Domestic room renovations
Plasterboarding, preparation and finishing for bedrooms, kitchens, living rooms and other domestic projects. Tell us which surfaces are being retained and what other work is planned.
Stud walls and dry lining
Internal stud walls, partitions and plasterboard work can be quoted alongside the plaster finish. Layout, openings and any electrical requirements are assessed before construction.
Preparation makes the difference
A smooth finish starts with a sound surface.
A re-skim does not replace the need to assess damaged or loose plaster. We look at the existing wall or ceiling and agree whether patching, preparation, plasterboarding or a complete re-skim is appropriate.
If a leak or another problem is still causing damage, let us know before the repair is planned. Photos can help with an initial discussion, but uncertain or extensive work needs assessing in person.

Before we quote
Common plastering questions.
Do you take on small plaster repairs?
Yes. Local patch repairs and smaller plastering jobs are welcome. Send a photograph, rough dimensions and your postcode so we can discuss the work and access.
Can you skim damaged or uneven walls?
We first assess the existing plaster. Loose areas, deep uneven patches or unsuitable surfaces may need additional preparation before a smooth finishing coat can be applied.
Can my ceiling be overboarded and skimmed?
Where suitable, yes. The existing ceiling, supports, fixing requirements and room fittings need assessing before the overboarding and skim are agreed.
Can you quote from photographs?
Photos help us understand the job and may be enough to discuss a straightforward small repair. Larger jobs, poor surfaces and uncertain preparation normally need a site visit before the written quotation.
Do you cover complete room renovations?
Yes. Wall and ceiling skimming, plasterboard work, damaged-wall preparation and internal stud walls can be included in a domestic renovation quotation.
Is decorating included?
The quotation sets out the plastering and preparation agreed for the job. Painting is not included as standard; the plaster needs the appropriate drying and decorating process afterwards.
