Plastering Services in Lewes, East Sussex

Ever noticed how a fresh coat of paint can actually make old, bumpy walls look worse? That's where our skimming service comes in. We specialise in achieving that 'mirror-smooth' finish that makes a room feel brand new. Most homeowners we speak to in Lewes are looking to cover up years of wear and tear, or perhaps they've just stripped off layers of old wallpaper to find a bit of a mess underneath. Our team uses traditional 'float and set' techniques or modern multi-finish skimming to create a perfectly flat base. We’re particularly careful about keeping the mess to a minimum—we use plenty of dust sheets and always leave your home tidy because we know how disruptive building work can feel.

Living on the edge of the South Downs means our homes have to stand up to some fairly serious weather. If your current render is cracked or 'blown', it’s not just an eyesore—it’s an invitation for damp to move in. As approved PRB Systems contractors, we offer advanced external rendering solutions like Monocouche and silicone through-colour renders. The best part? These systems come with the colour already mixed in, so you can say goodbye to the ladder and the paintbrush for years to come. Whether you want a crisp, modern look for a new build or a breathable finish for a traditional Sussex property, our rendering services are designed to be as durable as they are beautiful.

Is there a musty smell in the spare room, or have you noticed salt stains appearing on your skirting boards? Damp is a common headache in Lewes, especially with our mix of historic flint walls and older brickwork. We don't believe in guesswork. Our team provides expert damp diagnosis to figure out if you're dealing with rising damp or penetrating damp from a faulty exterior. We offer comprehensive rising damp treatments, including new chemical DPCs and specialist tanking. We’ll hack off the contaminated plaster, treat the source of the moisture, and replaster with salt-resistant materials to ensure the problem doesn't come back to haunt you.

If you're looking to turn a cold garage into a home office or you're building a new stud wall, dry lining (often called 'dot and dab') is a fantastic, efficient way to get things moving. It’s not just about speed, though; using the right boards can make a huge difference to your comfort. We can install insulated plasterboard to keep the heat in, or acoustic boards to keep the noise out. It’s a great way to hide uneven brickwork and provide a clean, straight surface that’s ready for a final skim coat. We handle everything from the initial boarding to the final finish, ensuring your new space is solid and perfectly aligned.
