Plastered walls in Sant Andreu de la Barca: typical condition and our approach
Town-centre flats in areas such as Nucli Antic and El Centre are mostly 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.
To get a wall plumb, in flats and houses in areas such as La Plana, Pla de l'Estació and La Solana we fix screeds at regular intervals and angle beads on the arrises. Plaster is laid between the screeds and ruled off, so corners and wall-to-ceiling junctions come out straight.
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: Martorell, Castellbisbal and Corbera de Llobregat.

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.
