Plastering and skimming in Les Corts, wall by wall
Plastering in a shared building in areas such as Les Corts and La Maternitat i Sant Ramon means dust and bags on the stairs. We agree working hours with the residents' association, protect the entrance and lift and mix the plaster inside the flat, never in communal areas.
In homes across areas such as Pedralbes and Zona Universitària 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.
A site manager organises the job; we cover floors and furniture and, when finished, take away bags, rubble and sanding dust. We work in the surrounding areas too: Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, Sants-Montjuïc and Eixample.

Frequently asked questions

We work in Les Corts in areas such as Les Corts, La Maternitat i Sant Ramon, Pedralbes and Zona Universitària, and also nearby: Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, Sants-Montjuïc and Eixample.
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.
