PLASTERING & SKIMMING IN AMBLECOTE
Local Plastering, Done Properly
Amblecote sits within the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley, right by Audnam and the Stourbridge canal, so building-control sign-off for larger plastering work goes through Dudley Council, the same authority as our own Stourbridge base a few streets away. Amblecote's glassmaking history left plenty of Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Church Avenue that typically still carry original lime-and-sand plaster overdue a re-skim, while the housing further toward Wollaston is more likely to need patch repairs or artex brought up to date.
Victorian and Edwardian walls around Church Avenue and Audnam, stripped back and re-skimmed to a smooth finish.
Plasterboard skimming for extensions and loft conversions on Amblecote's newer housing.
Dated textured ceilings, common on the area's mid-century stock, skimmed flat or overboarded.
Cracks, damp-damaged patches and repairs after plumbing or rewiring work, blended into the existing wall.
