Plastering and skimming in Vilafranca del Penedès, wall by wall
In areas such as Centre Vila, La Barceloneta and Molí d'en Rovira, where winters are colder, outside walls often show condensation and mould in the corners. Before plastering we consider an insulated lining or a more breathable render, then skim the wall ready for paint.
After rewiring or new plumbing, which is common in areas such as L'Espirall, La Girada and Sant Julià, we fill the chases with gypsum, bed mesh over movement cracks and skim the entire wall, not just the patch, so nothing shows through the paint.
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: Santa Margarida i els Monjos, Olèrdola and La Granada.

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.
