Plastered walls in Castellbisbal: typical condition and our approach
Many flats date from the 1960s to 80s, with hand-screeded gypsum walls that are sound but show ripples once painted in light colours. A full skim with fine filler usually sorts it out without hacking off (the norm in areas such as Nucli antic, Santa Rita and Colònia del Carme).
The final skim 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 Rubí, Martorell and Sant Andreu de la Barca.

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.
