Yes — skimming over old artex is one of the most common plastering jobs we carry out for customers in Sunderland. Many older properties still have textured artex on their ceilings or sometimes on the walls, and a lot of homeowners want to modernise these spaces with a smooth, fresh finish. Our skilled plasterers know exactly how to prepare artex surfaces so the new plaster adheres properly and lasts for years. Depending on the condition of the artex, we may scrape back high spots, apply a bonding coat if needed, and then skim over the top to create a perfectly flat surface. It’s a specialist job that needs care and experience, which is why it’s always best to get a professional to do it. We’re happy to inspect your ceilings or walls, talk you through the process, and give you honest advice on the best way to get the results you’re looking for.

How long your plastering will take depends on the size of the area and what needs doing, but at JL Plasterers we always aim to work efficiently and with minimal disruption. A straightforward skim of an average-sized room typically takes a day or two, while larger areas or full property refurbishments can take longer. We’ll always keep you informed so you know what to expect. Once the plastering is done, it’s important to let the plaster dry fully before decorating. This usually takes between four and seven days for skimming, but it can be longer for thicker coats or large areas. Drying times also depend on the room temperature and ventilation. You’ll know it’s dry when the plaster changes from a darker shade to a light, uniform colour. Rushing to paint too soon can cause problems later, so it’s worth the wait. If you need tips on the best paint to use on newly plastered walls, we’re always happy to help.
