A flawless paint job always starts with a perfect base.

Typically, a fresh skim coat needs 24–48 hours to dry fully before applying primer or paint, depending on ventilation and humidity. We’ll advise you on the exact timing for your project to ensure the best finish.
Not when done professionally. We feather the edges of repairs and apply a thin skim over the affected area, then sand flush with the surrounding wall. Once painted, the repair will be completely invisible.

Absolutely. We have extensive experience working with period properties in areas like Clifton and Redland. We use traditional lime-based plasters where appropriate and match the original finish to maintain your home’s character.
