NEWCASTLE PLASTERING SPECIALISTS
Quality Plastering for Homes, Extensions and Renovations
The quality of the plastering affects every stage that follows. Uneven backgrounds, poor preparation and rushed finishing can remain visible after decorating, while a well-prepared plaster finish gives painters and homeowners the clean foundation they need.
We assess the existing walls and ceilings, explain the appropriate preparation and complete the work carefully to create smooth, consistent surfaces ready for decoration.

EXPERT PREPARATION
What Creates a High-Quality Plaster Finish?
The final skim is only one part of the job. Long-lasting results depend on correctly assessing the background and completing the right preparation before new plaster is applied.
That can include removing loose material, securing plasterboard, fitting beads, controlling suction, reinforcing vulnerable areas and making sure surfaces are suitable for the chosen system.

PLASTERING ADVICE
Drying and Decorating After Plastering
Fresh plaster must be allowed to dry naturally before decoration. Drying time varies with thickness, ventilation, temperature and the condition of the property.
New plaster normally changes from a darker colour to a consistent pale finish as it dries. Avoid forcing the process with excessive direct heat, as uneven drying can affect the surface.
Before You Decorate
- Wait until the plaster is fully and evenly dry
- Use suitable ventilation rather than intense direct heat
- Follow the paint manufacturer’s guidance for new plaster
- Do not paper or seal damp plaster
- Contact us if any area appears unusual during drying
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Plastering Questions Answered
How much does plastering cost in Newcastle upon Tyne?
The cost depends on room size, surface condition, preparation and the type of plastering required. We provide free quotations based on the actual project.
Can you skim over existing plaster?
Often yes, provided the background is stable and prepared correctly. Loose or failing plaster may need additional work or removal first.
Can you cover Artex ceilings?
Many textured ceilings can be prepared and skimmed, but they must be inspected first so the safest and most suitable method can be recommended.
How long does new plaster take to dry?
Drying time varies according to thickness, ventilation, temperature and the property. We provide guidance after completing the work.

Yes. We protect relevant floors, access routes and nearby surfaces before plastering begins.
