Plastering and skimming in Abrera, wall by wall
In areas such as El Rebato and Can Torres, where winters are colder, outside walls often show condensation and mould in the corners. Before plastering we consider an insulated lining or a more breathable render, then skim the wall ready for paint.
The final skim on walls we work on in areas such as Santa Maria de Vilalba, Can Vilalba and Ca n'Amat goes on in thin coats of fine filler, each sanded before the next. We check the finish with a lamp held close to the wall and seal it so the paint takes evenly everywhere.
With more than 20 years in renovation, we visit, measure the wall area and prepare a detailed written quote. We also travel to nearby areas such as Martorell, Esparreguera and Olesa de Montserrat.

We work in Abrera in areas such as El Rebato, Can Torres, Santa Maria de Vilalba, Can Vilalba, Ca n'Amat, Les Carpes and Sant Miquel, and also nearby: Martorell, Esparreguera and Olesa de Montserrat.
02What is the difference between plastering and skimming?
Plastering is a coat of gypsum that corrects out-of-plumb walls and leaves brick or old plaster flat. Skimming is a thin coat that removes roughness from a wall that is already flat.
03When can a freshly plastered wall be painted?
Once the plaster is completely dry, which depends on its thickness, ventilation and the time of year. Before painting we apply a sealer so the paint takes evenly across the surface.
04Can a wall with cracks be skimmed?
Yes, but first we open up and fill the cracks and, if they are movement cracks, we embed mesh so they do not show through again.
