What does skimming mean in plastering?

Skimming is the process of applying a thin layer of finishing plaster over existing walls or ceilings to create a smooth surface.

It’s often used to cover cracks, artex or uneven plaster before decorating.

Loose plaster, damp or deep cracks may need repairs before skimming begins.

Tip: Thinking about taking on the job yourself? Our handy how-to guide to skimming takes you through the process.

How do I know if my walls need skimming?

You may need skimming if your walls have:

  • Cracks or flaking plaster

Contact a plasterer covering Featherstone to confirm whether skimming is doable for your home.

Can you paint directly onto skimmed plaster?

New skimmed plaster should be left to dry, then sealed with a mist coat before applying standard paint.
