What to check before hiring a plastering

Frequently Asked Questions

Can plaster be applied over drywall?
Drywall doesn't need plastering — it is primed and skim coated directly, or only the joints and screw heads are filled. Applying a thick plaster layer over drywall is not recommended as it increases weight and may damage the boards.
How long should plaster dry before painting?
Gypsum plaster dries sufficiently for skim coating in 24-48 hours. Skim coat dries in 24-72 hours depending on thickness and humidity. Painting can be done after at least 7-14 days from skim coat completion, to allow full drying and avoid cracks.
What decorative plasters are available and how are they applied?
The most popular are Venetian plaster (hand-polished, marble-like appearance), bark texture (applied with a trowel, granular look), decorative mosaic, and epoxy wall resins. Each requires a specialized tradesperson and careful substrate preparation.
Is exterior plaster different from interior plaster?
Yes. Exterior plaster must withstand weather, large temperature variations, and moisture. Cement mortars or insulation system solutions (EPS + mesh + silicate or acrylic render) are used. Interior plaster can be gypsum-based, easier to work with and finish.
What is an external insulation system and how does it work?
An external insulation composite system (ETICS) is a complete exterior thermal insulation system including: bonding polystyrene or mineral wool boards to the wall, reinforcing with fiberglass mesh, applying base coat plaster, and finishing with decorative render. It significantly reduces heat loss and modernizes facade appearance.
Does old cracked plaster need to be completely removed?
If old plaster is detached, bubbled, or cracked over large areas, complete removal and re-plastering is recommended. For minor cracks with otherwise solid plaster, local intervention is possible — filling cracks, applying skim coat, and repainting.
