Plastering & Rendering

New door furniture and door, new skirting, re skim plastering, coving, new window board

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.38 PM

Could anyone please tell me what order this should be done, I am trying to decide which tradesman to get in first to safe money.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi, the order should be window board first so plasterer can skim to this, then as mentioned the skim will go next. Once plaster has dried mist coat the walls using a good emulsion mixed with water usually 50/50. Then I would get your coving done, this then leaves the remaining work for a chippy skirting, door and ironmongery. Hope that helps Mike

MRG has the correct order of things.A good builder or handyman could do all of those jobs.Would be easier and quicker if one person done it all.

Windows, prep walls, plaster, prep, paint or backing paper 1st, white wash. Paint. To clarify... Windows, walls, skirting, coving . Skirting and coving don't matter on which order they go.
