Plastered walls in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi: typical condition and our approach
In 1960s and 70s flats in areas such as Sarrià and Les Tres Torres the plaster is usually sound but full of patches, old chases and textured paint. A full skim is often enough; plaster and filler come up in bags, so a narrow lift is no obstacle.
In homes across areas such as Sant Gervasi - Galvany, Sant Gervasi - la Bonanova and El Putxet i el Farró 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: Les Corts, Gràcia and Horta-Guinardó.

Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
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.
