Frequently Asked Questions
Can you match an old cornice profile?
Yes — most heritage cornices can be matched. The matched plasterer either casts new sections or sources matching profile from a heritage supplier.
How long does a ceiling repair take?
A typical hole + patch: 2-3 hours work + 24h drying before sanding + paint. Full ceiling replacement: 2-3 days.
Will the repair show through paint?
No, if done properly. Three-coat finish with proper sanding is invisible under paint. Cheap one-coat patches always show.
Can you skim coat over old walls?
Yes — full skim coat takes textured or damaged walls to smooth. Adds 1-2 days to a room repaint job.
