Frequently Asked Questions
How long does plaster take to dry?
Skim coats typically dry in 4-7 days, depending on conditions. Full two-coat work needs 2-3 weeks before decorating.
How long does a stud wall take to build?
A standard single partition wall typically takes 4-10 days, including plastering and drying time.
Will plastering make a mess?
We use dust sheets, protective coverings, and clean as we go. You’ll be surprised how tidy we keep things.
Do stud walls need building regulations approval?
Not usually for simple partitions, but fire-rated walls and structural changes may require approval.
