What we check on a wall before replastering
Second homes in areas such as Nucli antic, Puig Mercadal and Castelló Nou are often closed for much of the year, and we find walls with salt deposits, stains and crumbling plaster near the floor. We treat those areas before plastering and let the background dry out properly.
The final skim on walls we work on in areas such as Port Grec, Gran Reserva and Salins 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.
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: Roses, Peralada and Sant Pere Pescador.

Frequently asked questions
01Wall plastering and skimming in Castelló d'Empúries: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Castelló d'Empúries, in areas such as Nucli antic, Puig Mercadal, Castelló Nou, Port Grec, Gran Reserva, Salins, Puigmal and Mas Nou, and also nearby: Roses, Peralada and Sant Pere Pescador. 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.
