Plastering in Fetești

About this service

Plastering and skim coating are the foundational works that prepare walls for final finishes — paint, wallpaper, or other decorative coverings. Services include interior plastering (manual or machine-applied), exterior plastering (including insulation systems), skim coat application in plaster or acrylic, repairing and retouching deteriorated walls, applying decorative plasters (Venetian, bark finish, resins), removing old deteriorated plaster, and re-profiling corners. An experienced plasterer achieves flat surfaces with uniform thickness and straight angles, essential for a quality final result when painting or wallpapering. The choice of plastering system (plaster, lime-cement, drywall) depends on the substrate, application area (wet or dry), and budget. Exterior plaster with fiberglass mesh and silicate or acrylic render protects the facade from weather for 10-20 years. SmallJobs connects you with experienced plasterers available for small and large projects.

What to check before hiring a plastering

Ventilate rooms well after plastering and skim coating to accelerate drying
Don't paint before complete drying — minimum 7-14 days after skim coat completion

Frequently Asked Questions

What plaster is used in bathrooms or kitchens?

In wet areas, cement-based or water-resistant plaster is recommended. Gypsum plaster is not recommended in bathrooms unless subsequently covered with tiles or a waterproofing membrane.

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.
