What is skimming?

Skimming is one of the methods used to plaster walls. It is a technique that involves plastering the surface area with a thin coat over the existing plaster to smooth it out. The existing plaster is usually roughened up beforehand to provide a good key for the new coat. Once the new coat is applied, it is then smoothed out with a trowel or float.

How does it work?

It involves plastering a thin layer to a wall with existing plaster. The idea is to make the surface smooth. There are different methods to make the surface rough as well if that’s the kind of finish customers want.

What is the purpose of skimming?

It helps to make your wall look more attractive and gives it a smoother finish. It is usually done after the first layer of plaster has been applied.

Is skimming necessary?

Yes, it is very important if you want your home or business to look its best. If you have any cracks or holes in your walls, then they need to be filled before you apply the next coat of plaster. This will help to prevent water from getting into the wall and causing damage. If you have had a room rewired, new lighting added or had radiators moved, you may require repair or re-skimming of a complete wall or ceiling.

What's the difference between skimming and plastering?

Decorative plastering and skimming both increase the durability of walls, but plastering is performed on new buildings and the latter is applied on old structures.

FAQ

What is the difference between plastering and skimming?

Skimming is a type of plastering used to decorate a building and enhance the durability of walls. Plastering work is done to a new building while the other helps upgrade an old one. A skimmed surface is, in general, smoother than a plastered one.

How do I know when my house needs skimming?

When you notice any cracks or holes in the walls and floors of your home, it’s time to call in a professional. These issues could lead to water damage and mould growth.

Do I need skimming or plastering?

If an existing plaster wall or ceiling is smooth and free of significant cracks or chips, you probably do not need to skim it. A layer of skim plaster can be applied over the plasterboard or dry lining, depending on whether you have attached the plasterboard or dry lining.

How much does skimming cost?

The price depends on the size of your home and your requirements. Get in touch with us today to get a free quote.
