Plastering & Skimming Services in London

Plastering & Skimming for High-End London Homes

Fusion Recon Renovations is a Bromley-based renovation company providing meticulous plastering and skimming for London homeowners, landlords and investors who want perfectly smooth walls and ceilings ready for decoration. We work across the capital, with a strong focus on high-value areas such as Wimbledon, Richmond, Clapham, Chelsea, Kensington and surrounding postcodes.

Whether you are refreshing a single room or completing a full refurbishment, our experienced team delivers clean, even surfaces that make your paint colours, lighting and interior design look sharper and more refined. If you are searching for a professional plasterer near me who understands high-end residential standards, Fusion Recon Renovations can plan, manage and complete the plastering stage as part of a wider project.

Why Quality Plastering & Skimming Matters

Good plastering is the foundation for every beautiful interior. Uneven walls, hairline cracks or rough skim coats will always show through, no matter how expensive your paint, tiles or wall coverings might be. That is why we spend time preparing each surface properly before applying new plaster or skim coats.

Smooth Surfaces Ready for Painting & Decorating

Once the structural work and first fix are complete, we create a consistent, smooth surface so that your chosen finishes look crisp and intentional. A neat skim coat makes it easier to achieve sharp cutting-in lines, flawless ceilings and modern, minimal shadow gaps when you move on to painting and decorating.

Blending Old and New Plaster in London Properties

Many London homes combine original plaster with newer extensions and alterations. We carefully feather in new plaster to existing surfaces so that everything looks like it was always designed together. This approach works especially well on larger projects, where plastering is coordinated with wider residential renovations and full-property upgrades.

Types of Plastering & Skimming We Carry Out

Every project starts with a site visit so we can assess the existing surfaces, measure moisture levels and check how the walls and ceilings sit within the room. From there we recommend the best combination of plasterboard, bonding, backing coats and finish coats for your property.

Full Room and Whole-Property Re-Skims

If your walls are generally sound but look tired or patchy, a full re-skim can transform the space without rebuilding everything from scratch. We often include full re-skims as part of full house refurbishment projects, so that every bedroom, hallway and living area feels consistent from one room to the next.

Plasterboard, Partitions and New Ceilings

Where walls are uneven or new layouts are being created, we can install new studwork and plasterboard before skimming. This is ideal when forming new rooms, boxing in services or tidying up after structural work, and ties in neatly with more complex structural alterations and layout changes.

Making Good After Electrics, Plumbing and Other Trades

Rewires, new plumbing runs and other intrusive works often leave channels, chases and holes in the plaster. We coordinate with your electrician, plumber or heating engineer to make good these areas, so that once we have skimmed, there is no visible trace of the disruption. This is particularly useful when plastering forms part of a wider refurbishment rather than a standalone service.

Plastering for Bathrooms, Kitchens and Tiled Areas

High-moisture rooms need extra care if they are going to stay looking sharp over time. We assess ventilation, substrate condition and the type of finish you want before deciding on the right plaster and preparation system.

Bathroom Plastering and Moisture-Resistant Substrates

In bathrooms and shower rooms we often combine moisture-resistant boards, tanking systems and specialist skim coats to create a stable base for tiles and paint. This approach ties in perfectly with full bathroom renovations, where we handle everything from first fix to final decoration.

Kitchen Walls, Ceilings and Backsplashes

Modern kitchens often feature open-plan layouts, concealed lighting and feature splashbacks, which demand straight lines and flat surfaces. We prepare walls and ceilings so that your cabinetry, worktops and lighting sit against crisp plastered backgrounds as part of wider kitchen renovations.

Perfect Substrates for Wall and Floor Tiling

Tiles highlight every imperfection in the surface beneath them. We level and skim walls and, where required, apply suitable boards so that tilers can achieve neat grout lines and long-lasting adhesion. This seamless handover is especially important when your project includes extensive wall and floor tiling in bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms.

Plastering for Landlords, Investors and Refurbishment Projects

For rental properties and investment portfolios, plastering needs to be both durable and efficient so that void periods are kept to a minimum. We help you choose specifications that balance longevity with budget and can phase works across multiple units or properties.

Fast Turnarounds Between Tenancies

Where time is critical, we focus on the areas that will make the greatest visual impact, such as entrance halls, living rooms and key bedrooms. Our team can work as part of broader landlord refurbishment packages, coordinating plastering with decoration, flooring and minor repairs to get your property back on the market quickly.

Working Alongside Wider Refurbishment Teams

On larger projects we integrate our plastering schedule with other trades so that the overall programme runs smoothly. This might include working alongside your main contractor or providing our own multi-trade team for complete commercial builders packages in mixed-use and residential buildings.

Linking Interior Plastering with External Rendering

Many homes benefit from coordinated internal and external upgrades. When you are insulating or re-rendering the outside of a property, it often makes sense to refresh internal surfaces at the same time, especially around window reveals and openings.

Consistent Finishes Inside and Out

By planning internal plastering together with any external rendering, we can ensure that junctions, corners and edges align neatly. This gives the whole property a more deliberate, high-end feel, particularly on period terraces and larger detached homes.
