Plastering in Paisley

Being based in Paisley makes plastering work here straightforward: Pieter can come and look at the wall quickly, start sooner, and call back easily if anything needs attention. Paisley's mix of Victorian tenements, post-war semis and newer builds each take a different first coat, and the substrate gets checked before anything is quoted.

Skimming, re-skimming, plasterboarding and repair work — including damp proofing and wall & plaster repair — throughout Paisley and the surrounding Renfrewshire towns, with free quotes and no travel padding.

Our process

How the job runs

No surprises. Here is what happens from the first phone call to the final clean-up.

  1. 01

    Look at the job

    Pieter comes out, checks the substrate, and tells you honestly whether it needs a skim, a patch or a full re-board.

  2. 02

    Prep and protect

    Floors covered, sockets masked, furniture moved clear. Old loose plaster comes off before anything new goes on.

  3. 03

    Board or bond

    Fresh plasterboard where it is needed, PVA or bonding coat where the wall will take it.

  4. 04

    Skim and finish

    Two coats, trowelled up as it sets, then a final polish so the wall is flat and paint-ready.

  5. 05

    Clean up

    Waste bagged and taken away. You get the room back the way you would want it.

Questions

Plastering in Paisley — questions

How long does it take to plaster a room?

A typical bedroom or living room skim is a one-day job, sometimes stretching into a second day for ceilings or larger spaces. A full re-board and skim usually runs two to three days.

How long before I can paint new plaster?

Allow the plaster to go fully pale — usually four to seven days depending on the room and the time of year. The first coat should be a watered-down mist coat, not neat emulsion.

Can you plaster over artex?

Yes. Artexed ceilings are normally sealed and skimmed over rather than scraped, which is faster, far less messy, and avoids disturbing older coatings.

Are you based in Paisley?

Yes. PJN Plastering & Tiling is now based in Paisley, after a decade working out of Cambuslang.

Which parts of Renfrewshire do you cover?

Paisley itself along with Renfrew, Johnstone, Linwood, Elderslie, Erskine, Bishopton and Barrhead. If you are unsure whether you are in range, phone and ask.
