All types of internal wall plastering / plaster skimming.
Plaster Skimming Walls
This is probably the most common method of all where the walls are given a skim coat of multi finish over the complete area of the wall. This is a great way to get fresh new looking walls without a huge expense. What you must remember though this is only a thin coat of plaster to give rough walls a new appearance again. This method will not make uneven walls flat again or cure any damp issues you may have. Also if the base coat of plaster is a bit lose you can sometimes get hairline cracks appear. However, this is preventable as long as any visible cracks are covered with a scrim tape before the skim coat.
Float & Sett
When walls are taken back to the brickwork a base coat is required. There is a massive range of lightweight plasters on today’s market which are mixed with drills & all have their own purposes which are great if used on the right background. Generally, you should use a sand & cement mix with an added waterproofer on any external walls. As these walls often have damp issues. On new block work a lightweight plaster called hardwall is ideal for the high suction levels that blocks have & any low suction backgrounds or where adhesion may be a problem a bonding plaster is recommended.
