Types of Plaster Repairs We Carry Out
Solid Wall Plaster Repairs
For cracked, blown, or damaged plaster on masonry walls, we identify the correct system to repair and re-plaster your walls properly. We use high-quality materials including:
-
Bonding Coat, Hardwall and Multi-Finish for robust, modern repairs
-
Sand & Cement with mesh where needed for added durability
-
Breathable lime or hybrid plasters for older homes and damp-prone walls
We never just skim over damage. We cut back to sound plaster or brick, apply bonding agents where necessary, and rebuild the wall surface the right way.
Ceiling Repairs and Overboarding
From hairline cracks to full-blown ceiling failure, we handle every type of ceiling issue:
-
Repairing sagging or cracked ceilings
-
Over-boarding and skimming old lathe or artex ceilings
-
Patch repairs for water damage or spot failures
-
Mesh reinforcement to prevent recurring cracks
If your ceiling is beyond patching, we can install a fresh new Plasterboard & skim finish ready for decorating.
Lath and Plaster Repairs
We’re experienced in repairing and preserving traditional lath and plaster ceilings and walls — common in heritage homes across Surrey. We:
-
Repair and reinforce laths where possible
-
Carefully blend new repairs with existing finishes

This is delicate work — but our team is trained to respect and restore traditional features with the correct materials.
