About Our Plastering
Proper preparation, clean working and a finish ready for decorating.
Lanes Plastering & Damp Proofing Ltd carries out plastering across County Durham and Tyne & Wear, helping homeowners repair damaged plaster, refresh tired rooms and prepare walls and ceilings for decorating.
Good plastering starts before the final coat goes on. Existing surfaces need to be checked, loose material needs dealing with, and the room needs to be protected so the work can be completed cleanly. Whether it is a patch repair, a ceiling, a single wall or a full room, the aim is always a smoother, neater and more reliable finish.
Because Lanes also handles damp proofing and joinery, we can give practical advice when plastering is part of a wider repair or room improvement. If blown plaster, stains, salts or recurring patches suggest a damp issue, we can help identify the right approach before covering over the problem.

Plastering Done Properly
Not just a skim coat. The right preparation before the finish goes on.
Walls and ceilings can look straightforward at first glance, but cracks, loose plaster, damp patches, old repairs and uneven backgrounds can all affect the finished result. Lanes takes a practical approach, checking the area before work begins and advising on the preparation needed.
For many homes, plastering is part of a bigger improvement. It may follow damp repair, joinery, rewiring, plumbing work or a full room renovation. By planning the work properly, the finished surface is left ready for decorating instead of becoming another problem later.

FAQs
Useful answers before booking plastering work.
For skimming, patch repairs, ceiling work and room renovation plastering, these are the questions homeowners usually need answered first.
Do you take on smaller plastering repairs?
Yes. Patch repairs, single walls, damaged plaster, holes, cracks and smaller making-good work can all be discussed. Photos are helpful so we can understand the size and condition of the area.
Can you skim a full room?

Do you plaster ceilings?
Yes. Ceiling plastering and ceiling repair work can be carried out, including skimming dated, damaged or uneven ceilings where the surface is suitable.
Can you replaster after damp proofing?
Yes. Damp treatment and reinstatement can be planned together, so the affected area is treated and then finished properly.
How long does plaster take to dry?
Drying time depends on the room, surface, ventilation and thickness of the plaster. Plaster should be fully dry before decorating.
