Working in your home
Clean, protected and organised
Plastering is one of the messiest stages of any renovation, so how the work is managed matters as much as the finish. Before we start, floors, stairs, windows and joinery are sheeted and taped, and doorways into occupied rooms are sealed with dust screens.
We agree working hours, parking and access in advance, keep materials and tools in an agreed area, clean down every day and remove our waste at the end of the job.
- Floor and joinery protection
- Dust screens to occupied areas
- Daily clean down
- Waste removed on completion
- Drying and decorating guidance at handover

Client feedback
What homeowners say
Clear communication, tidy working and a very good finish throughout the house. The ceilings are perfectly flat.
They explained exactly why the walls needed lime rather than gypsum and the result is excellent.
Can you plaster while we are living in the house?
Yes, in most cases. We work room by room, fit dust screens, protect floors and routes through the house, and clean down at the end of every day.
Do you work with our builder or architect?
Yes. We regularly work as the plastering contractor alongside builders, architects and project managers, and can coordinate directly with other trades.
