Local Know-How

Plastering Canterbury's Period Homes

Many older Canterbury homes were built with lime plaster on timber lath. Skimming straight over them with modern gypsum can trap moisture and cause more problems down the line — so where it matters we use breathable, sympathetic methods that suit the building.

We also handle plenty of student lets and HMOs around the university and city centre — quick, hard-wearing re-skims between tenancies — plus crisp, modern finishes on the newer developments around the edge of the city.

Canterbury Plastering FAQs

Do you work on period or listed properties in Canterbury?
Yes — we regularly work on Canterbury's older and listed homes, using sympathetic, breathable methods where the building needs them rather than trapping moisture behind a modern skim.
Do you use lime plaster?
Where an older property calls for it, yes — lime lets the wall breathe and suits solid-wall and listed buildings. We'll advise whether lime or gypsum is right for your home.
Can you do quick turnarounds on student lets and HMOs?
Yes — around the university and city we do plenty of fast, hard-wearing re-skims and repairs between tenancies, worked around your changeover dates.
Can you repair a cracked old ceiling?
Yes — Canterbury's old lath-and-plaster ceilings often crack or sag; we overboard and skim, or replaster, for a smooth, crack-free finish that keeps the character.
