Plastering and skimming in Sitges, wall by wall
Second homes in areas such as Centre, Poble Sec and Els Ametllers 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.
To get a wall plumb, in flats and houses in areas such as Sant Sebastià, Aiguadolç and Terramar 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.
We come to see the walls, tap them with you and hand over a detailed written quote, wall by wall. We also plaster and skim in nearby areas: Sant Pere de Ribes, Castelldefels and Gavà.

Frequently asked questions
01Wall plastering and skimming in Sitges: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Sitges, in areas such as Centre, Poble Sec, Els Ametllers, Can Pei, Sant Sebastià, Aiguadolç, Terramar and Levantina, and also nearby: Sant Pere de Ribes, Castelldefels and Gavà. 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.
