Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between solid plastering and standard plasterboard?
Solid plastering involves applying a layer of plaster directly onto brick, concrete, or blockwork, creating a hard, durable surface. Plasterboard, or drywall, uses sheets attached to a frame, which are then finished with a thin coat of plaster. Solid plastering tends to be more robust and offers better soundproofing and insulation, but it can be more labour-intensive and costly.
How long does plaster take to dry before painting?
Drying time depends on the thickness of the plaster and environmental conditions. Typically, a skim coat can take 24–48 hours, while thicker solid plaster may take up to a week or more. It’s important to wait until the plaster is fully dry — indicated by a consistent light colour — before applying paint to avoid peeling or cracking.
How do I maintain plaster walls?
To keep plaster walls looking their best, regularly dust them with a soft cloth or vacuum attachment. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excess water, as moisture can damage the surface. For minor cracks or chips, patching with filler and repainting is usually sufficient, while larger repairs should be handled by a professional.
