Plaster Skimming

Parry & Jones plastering & rendering North Wales

Plaster skimming to plasterboards is a popular method of providing a smooth, seamless surface ready to receive a decorative finish. Skim plastering gives many of the advantages of a traditional solid plaster finish combined with quick turnaround on site. Surface preparation simply involves joint reinforcement and, if tapered edge board is used, flushing-out the tapers. The plaster is applied to the wall or ceiling surface to a nominal 2mm thickness.

At Parry & Jones Plastering we are a specialist in plastering and skimming and have completed many projects throughout many year of business in Chester, Wrexham, Anglesey and North Wales areas.
