Google ReviewsOur Method: A Step-by-Step Guide to Perfect Skimming
Our skimming process involves careful preparation. We start by thoroughly cleaning the walls and applying a bonding agent to promote adhesion. Then, we apply two thin coats of high-quality finishing plaster, allowing each coat to set slightly before applying the next. This two-coat method is important to achieve a smooth, even surface without imperfections. Finally, we carefully smooth and polish the final coat to create a flawless finish, ready for your chosen decoration.
