PLASTERING & SKIMMING IN WOLLASTON
Local Plastering, Done Properly
Wollaston sits within the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley, right next to Amblecote on the western edge of Stourbridge, so building-control sign-off for larger plastering-related work goes through Dudley Council, the same authority that covers our own Stourbridge base just up the road. Housing around Eggington Road and the streets toward Wollaston Court is a mix of Victorian villas and inter-war semis, with original lime-and-sand plaster still common in the older properties and due a re-skim, while newer infill housing needs straightforward plasterboard skimming instead.
Victorian and inter-war walls around Eggington Road, stripped back and re-skimmed to a smooth, modern finish.
Plasterboard skimming for extensions and loft conversions on Wollaston's newer infill housing.
Dated textured ceilings, common on the area's 1960s-70s housing, skimmed flat or overboarded.
Cracks, damp-damaged patches and repairs after plumbing or rewiring work, blended into the existing wall.
