Smooth walls and ceilings are the foundation of every good finish. Adior Construction’s plasterers skim, board, float and render for homeowners across Waltham Abbey, Cheshunt, Enfield, Chingford, Walthamstow, Loughton and the whole of North and East London.

Frequently asked questions

How long before I can paint new plaster?

Fresh plaster needs to dry fully, usually 5 to 7 days for a skim coat in a warm, ventilated room. A mist coat (watered-down emulsion) goes on first, then the top coats.

Can you remove an Artex ceiling?

Yes. Depending on age and condition we either skim over it or remove it. Older Artex can contain asbestos, so we test first where appropriate.

Do you plasterboard lofts and extensions?

Yes. We board and skim all the rooms in our own loft and extension projects, and for other builders and homeowners.

Do you do external rendering?

Yes. We apply sand-and-cement and modern through-coloured renders to extensions and existing walls.
