Question 1

Do you work weekends for jobs in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

For jobs in Oxleys Green we keep to Monday to Friday, 7am until 6pm, as standard. Saturdays are available by arrangement where there is a deadline to hit, and Sundays are the exception rather than the rule.

Question 2

What should I expect on the day of a plastering job in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

On the day, we turn up in Oxleys Green with everything needed for the job, protect your flooring and furniture first, then work steadily through until finished, leaving the site clean at the end. Timings and any particular requirements are agreed with you at the quotation stage.

Question 3

Can you plaster around fitted kitchens and bathrooms in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

We regularly plaster around existing fitted units in Oxleys Green homes without any issue, protecting them as we go. On certain jobs, taking units out temporarily gives a better, faster finish, and we will flag that during the quote if it applies to your property.

Question 4

How do you handle moisture in bathrooms or kitchens in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

Wet rooms in Oxleys Green properties do better with microcement or a vinyl silk emulsion than a plain matte finish, in our experience. We walk through what suits your space during the quote so you can decide what fits the budget and the room.

Question 5

Do you offer any guarantee on your work in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

Our reputation stands behind every job we do in Oxleys Green. If something goes wrong with our work within the first year, we come back and put it right at no charge.

Question 6

Can you advise on paint finishes after plastering in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

We are happy to share what usually performs best on top of a finish once a job in Oxleys Green is complete, but for the finer points of paint choice, your decorator is the better source.

Question 7

What is the difference between skimming and float and set in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

For Oxleys Green properties, skimming means a thin refresh coat over existing sound plaster, while float and set is the two-coat approach used on new blockwork or plasterboard, levelling with a float coat before the finishing skim.

Question 8

How long does it take to plaster a room in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

A single-room skim on sound existing plaster in Oxleys Green usually takes a day. Float and set runs longer, typically two to three days per room, since each coat needs time to dry before the next goes on.

Question 9

Do you repair period plaster in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

Yes, older properties in Oxleys Green often have original lime plaster or lath and plaster that needs a different approach than modern gypsum. We assess the existing system and repair with compatible materials.

Question 10

Can you plaster over tiles or woodchip in Oxleys Green?

Accepted Answer

For plastering over old wall coverings in Oxleys Green, tiles almost always need removing first so the substrate can be prepared properly. Woodchip has more flexibility, sometimes bonded and skimmed rather than stripped, but we will advise which route suits your walls after a look on-site.
