Plastering services in Ayrshire
Skimming walls and ceilings
A fresh skim coat turns tired, uneven or patched walls and ceilings into a smooth, flat surface. It is the most popular plastering job we do in Ayr and across Ayrshire, and the quickest way to get a room ready for decorating.
Full replastering
Where old plaster is loose, blown or badly cracked, we strip it back and replaster from scratch, so the finish lasts for years.
Rendering
We render external walls to protect the building and give it a clean, finished look. This matters in Ayrshire’s wet coastal weather.
Dry lining and plasterboarding
For new builds, extensions and renovations, we fit plasterboard and skim it to a smooth finish, ready for painting or wallpapering.
Plaster repairs
Cracks, holes and damaged patches are repaired and blended in so the repair disappears once decorated.
Artex covering
Outdated Artex ceilings and walls can be covered with a smooth plaster finish, giving the room a modern look without the mess of removal.
Lime plaster
Older buildings need walls that can breathe. We use lime plaster on period homes and traditional sandstone tenements, where modern gypsum can trap moisture and lead to damp. It is the right choice for keeping the original character of a property and protecting its fabric.
Coving
New coving gives a clean, finished line where the walls meet the ceiling. We fit coving in new and existing rooms, and replace damaged or dated lengths so the run looks seamless once painted.
Decorative plasterwork
We repair and create cornices, ceiling roses and mouldings, which is ideal for period properties where original features matter.
Soundproofing
Using specialised plastering techniques and materials, we can help reduce noise between rooms and properties.
