Plastering and skimming in Arenys de Mar, wall by wall
On estates and in areas such as Pla dels Frares, Sa Boada and Lurda many holiday houses are being converted for year-round living, with walls moved and chases everywhere. We plaster the new sections and skim the old ones so the whole house has the same finish.
In homes across areas such as Carolines, Cinc-roses and El Cònsol we start by tapping every wall, marking hollow plaster and removing it back to a sound background. On brick, concrete or old gypsum we apply a bonding coat so the new layer grips and does not come away later.
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 Canet de Mar, Sant Vicenç de Montalt and Arenys de Munt.

Frequently asked questions

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.
