Plastering refers to interior wall and ceiling finishes, creating smooth surfaces ready for painting or wallpapering. Rendering is the exterior equivalent, providing weather-resistant protective coatings like K-Rend or Monocouche. At TJ Plastering Specialists, we expertly handle both for flawless finishes throughout your Epsom property.

Plastering costs vary based on project size, surface condition, and finish type. In Surrey, skimming typically ranges from £8-£12 per m², while complete plastering jobs average £150-£250 per day. We offer free, no-obligation quotes for all Epsom and Surrey residents to ensure transparent pricing for your specific needs.

Plastering over damp walls without proper treatment will lead to recurring problems. Our process includes: 1) Identifying the damp source, 2) Applying damp-proof membranes or chemical DPCs, 3) Using specialist salt-resistant plaster. We’re Surrey’s trusted experts for damp proofing and subsequent plastering to create durable, healthy walls.

K-Rend (a smooth silicone render) offers modern aesthetics and low maintenance, ideal for contemporary Surrey homes. Pebble dash provides traditional texture and excellent durability. We’ll advise which suits your property’s architecture, local Epsom weather conditions, and maintenance preferences during our free consultation.

New plaster typically needs 4-6 weeks to fully dry, though skim coats may be ready in 7-10 days. Factors like thickness, ventilation, and weather affect drying times. Our Epsom plastering team will provide specific guidance for your project and can recommend moisture-resistant primers for earlier painting if needed.

Not always, but common scenarios requiring replastering include: 1) Wall damage from aggressive stripping, 2) Multiple wallpaper layers causing uneven surfaces, 3) Existing plaster cracks or bubbles. We offer free assessments for Epsom homeowners to determine if your walls need skimming or just preparatory work before redecorating.
