Why use our Maidstone plasterers
A good plastering job is mostly preparation. Walls and ceilings need checking for loose or hollow plaster, the right bonding coat for the background, and properly taped joints on new board. Skip any of that and the finish cracks within months. We take the time to do it properly, which is why our quotes say exactly what's included.
Clear, fixed quotes
We look at the job before pricing it, and the quote you get is the price you pay. If you ask for extra work along the way, we'll price that separately before we start it.
Your home treated with care
Floors are sheeted, furniture is covered or moved, and dust is kept to the room we're working in. At the end of the day the work area is swept and tidied.
Plastering, and the small jobs around it
Alongside plastering, skimming and dry lining, we can help with the small building jobs that often go with it, like bricking up an opening, repairing a garden wall or patching up after a new kitchen goes in.

Questions about plastering in Maidstone
How much does plastering cost in Maidstone?
It depends on the size of the room, the state of the existing walls or ceiling, and whether it needs a skim or a full replaster. Rather than guess, we give you a fixed written quote once we know what the job involves. Get a free quote and we'll take it from there.
How long does new plaster take to dry before I can paint?
A skim coat usually needs around one to two weeks, and longer in cold or damp weather or where thicker backing coats have gone on. It's ready when the colour has gone from dark pink to an even pale pink with no darker patches. Seal it with a mist coat (watered-down emulsion) first.
Can you plaster over Artex?
Yes. Skimming over Artex is the most common way to get a flat ceiling back, and it avoids sanding or scraping the old coating. If your Artex went on before 2000, read our Artex page about getting it tested first.
Do you take on small plastering jobs?
Yes. Patching a hole after a new socket, skimming one wall or repairing a cracked ceiling are all jobs we're happy to quote for.
Which areas do you cover?
Maidstone town and the villages around it, including Aylesford, Bearsted, Coxheath, Headcorn, Larkfield and West Malling. See the full list on our areas we cover page.
