Complete Interior Plaster Skimming in Wembley

Project Overview

KTCS Construction completed a whole-property plaster skimming project in Wembley, refreshing the interior of a four-bedroom home with smooth, consistently finished walls and ceilings.

The work covered all four bedrooms, the living room, kitchen, hall, corridors and hallways, including the first- and second-floor areas and all ceilings. Plasterboard installation also formed part of the project, providing new surfaces for skimming where required.

From the larger ceiling areas to the details around corners and doorways, our team focused on delivering a high-quality finish throughout. Once the work was complete, we left the property clean and tidy, ready for the next stage of its refurbishment.

Scope of Work

Plasterboard Installation

We installed plasterboard in the areas requiring new boarding as part of the refurbishment. These surfaces were incorporated into the wider plastering work to achieve a consistent finish alongside the existing walls and ceilings.

Bedroom, Living Room and Kitchen Skimming

Our team completed interior wall skimming across the four bedrooms, living room and kitchen. Careful attention to the application and finishing helped create smooth surfaces throughout the main living areas.

Hallways, Corridors and Upper-Floor Areas

We skimmed the hall, connecting corridors and hallways, including the first- and second-floor areas. These spaces received the same attention as the main rooms, with neatly finished corners, edges and transitions between adjoining surfaces.

Complete Ceiling Skimming

The project included skimming all ceilings throughout the property. Our team worked carefully across the larger overhead surfaces and around the wall-to-ceiling junctions to achieve a clean, even appearance.

Detailed Finishing Around Corners and Openings

We paid particular attention to corners, doorways, window openings and adjoining surfaces. These details helped bring the plasterboarding and skimming together into a consistent, professionally finished interior.

Final Clean-Up and Handover

After completing the plastering work, we cleared the working areas and left the property clean and tidy. Respect for the client’s home was an important part of the service—not just the appearance of the finished plaster.

How the Plaster Skimming Process Works

Preparation comes first. Before skimming, the background needs to be suitable for the chosen plaster. New plasterboard joints are reinforced with joint tape, and compatible primers or bonding treatments are used where the surface requires them. The preparation depends on the condition and type of wall or ceiling being finished.

The finishing plaster is applied and smoothed. Skimming involves applying thin coats of finishing plaster and working the surface with a trowel as it sets. This creates a smooth, even finish across the surface, with careful attention to ridges, edges and corners. A properly finished skim should have a smooth matt surface rather than an excessively polished, glass-like finish.

Drying comes before decoration. Fresh plaster should be thoroughly dry before normal painting or wallpapering begins. The chosen paint or wall-covering manufacturer’s preparation instructions should then be followed.

A High-Quality Finish Throughout the Home

This project brought the property’s interior surfaces together with a smooth, carefully finished appearance, from the bedrooms and living spaces to the ceilings and connecting hallways.

Our focus was on consistent workmanship across the whole property, not just the most visible rooms. The finished skimming and clean handover reflected the care our team put into the job.
