Full Strip & Skim Repainting

A thorough cure — walls as smooth as a new flat

When walls suffer widespread mould, chalking or hollow, flaking plaster, surface patching only hides the problem. Full strip & skim repainting uses stripping solution to remove all old paint and plaster down to the base layer, then applies damp-proof primer, three full skim coats with thorough sanding, and three coats of finish paint — curing the underlying problems once and for all.

Suitable For

Older flats being renovated, walls with serious mould or chalking, wallpapered walls, or anyone wanting a flawlessly smooth finish.

Estimated Timeline

About 14-25 days (actual time depends on unit size and condition)
