Flawless Internal Plastering and Skimming

Ever noticed how a stray sunbeam can reveal every single bump and ridge on a wall? It is enough to drive you mad. Our internal skimming service is designed to wipe the slate clean. We take those tired, cracked, or uneven surfaces and turn them into a perfectly flat base for your paint or wallpaper. If you are dealing with old, textured Artex ceilings that feel like they are stuck in the 1980s, we can modernise them in no time. For bigger renovations, we often use dry lining or 'dot and dab' techniques to get your walls perfectly straight and plumb. We focus on the details that matter, ensuring your corners are sharp and your surfaces are flawless.

Modern Rendering Solutions for Mid Sussex Homes

The weather in West Sussex can be pretty unforgiving, and your home's exterior takes the brunt of it. If your current render is looking 'blown'—that's when it starts pulling away from the brick—or just looks plain dingy, it might be time for an upgrade. We are proud to be Approved PRB Systems Contractors. This means we are officially trained to install high-performance monocouche and silicone renders that are built to last. These advanced systems come in through-colour finishes, so you can throw away that paintbrush; they never need painting. They are flexible, breathable, and look incredible on everything from new builds to traditional Sussex cottages.

Solving Damp Problems for Good

Nothing ruins the excitement of a home project like finding a damp patch. Whether it is rising damp creeping up from the ground or penetrating damp sneaking in through a hairline crack in your brickwork, it needs more than just a lick of paint to fix. We don't just cover up the symptoms; we find the root cause. From installing a new chemical Damp Proof Course (DPC) to specialist tanking and salt-neutralising plastering, we make sure your home stays dry and healthy. Living in the RH15 area means dealing with our fair share of wet weather, and we know exactly what it takes to protect Mid Sussex homes from the elements.

Expert Ceiling Repairs and Artex Removal

Did a leaky pipe upstairs leave a nasty, sagging stain on your living room ceiling? Or maybe you are finally ready to say goodbye to that dated 'popcorn' texture? We specialise in making ceilings look brand new again. For older Artex, we usually recommend over-boarding—which involves fixing new plasterboard over the old texture—before skimming it to a perfectly flat finish. It is the safest and most effective way to bring your room into the 21st century. We are incredibly careful about the mess, too. We will sheet up your furniture and floors properly so that the only thing we leave behind is a ceiling you can't stop admiring.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional plastering, rendering, and damp proofing services in Southwick, West Sussex, and throughout Portslade, Brighton & Worthing.

How long does new plaster take to dry?

+

It usually takes about three to five days, but this depends on the weather and how much air is moving through the room. You will see the plaster change from a dark wet look to a light, uniform pink. It is best to wait until it is completely light pink before you start painting.

Do I need to clear the room before you start?

+

It helps if the room is as empty as possible so we have space to work and move our ladders safely. We always bring plenty of heavy-duty dust sheets to protect your floors and any large bits of furniture that cannot be moved.

Can you plaster over my old Artex ceiling?

+

Usually, yes. We can either scrape back the high points and skim over it, or if the texture is very deep, we might suggest over-boarding it with new plasterboard first. We will check the condition of the ceiling and give you the best advice for a long-lasting finish.

What is the benefit of a PRB render system?

+

PRB systems are designed to be flexible and breathable. In coastal areas like Worthing and Portslade, this is very important because it helps prevent cracks and stands up to the salt air much better than traditional materials. Plus, because they come in various colours, you won't need to paint them.

How do I know if I have rising damp or just condensation?

+

Rising damp usually leaves a tide mark on the lower part of the wall, often with some salt staining or peeling wallpaper. Condensation usually shows up as black mould in corners or behind furniture where air does not move. We can come out, take a look with a moisture meter and tell you exactly what is going on.

Is your work guaranteed?

+

We take huge pride in what we do. If there is ever an issue with the workmanship, we will come back and make it right. Our use of high-quality materials also means the finish is built to last for many years.
