Re skimming - South London

Re-skimming

Re-skimming is a solution for when stripping wall paper, replacing wall tiles during redecorating people find the walls or ceiling behind are often cracked, damaged, feature loose plaster, are damp or uneven etc.

Our re-skim  done in your South London area property will ensure that the décor you are introducing is best achieved by having flat, smooth walls and ceilings with nice crisp edges.

This will provide a more satisfying and problem free living space and help increasing the selling or renting value of your South London area property.

Re-skimming After we have re-vamped your property by plastering to the highest standards, you will need to wait 1-2 weeks for the plaster to completely dry out, after which it will be ready to be painting with a watered down coat of paint. This is important because the fresh plaster will absorb all of the moisture from the paint & will cause it to crack.
