Polished Plastering Wendover

Polished plaster is a popular name for the finish of some plasters and for the classification of new and updated styles of classic Italian plasterered finishes. The expression covers a whole collection of ornamental plaster finishes - from the highly polished Lucidato, Marmorino and Venetian plaster to the textured polished plasters. Polished plaster is predominantly used on interior ceilings and walls, to provide a finish that appears like polished travertine, limestone or marble. Polished plaster offers a sense of depth by means of natural variations in shade whilst at the same time being smooth to touch. Unique custom finishes can be created by combining these different sorts of plasters. By the use of natural or synthetic colourants, appealing tints or colours can be given to the polished plaster finish. If you want to achieve "marbling" effects in your plaster, or completely unique designs or colours which don't exist naturally, the ability to add a tint to Venetian plaster is especially beneficial.

Screeding

A few plasterers in Buckinghamshire can also provide screeding services, where a smooth, level floor surface is formed by the use of a cement and sand mix. In most cases screeding is poured on top of a concrete sub-floor to cover underfloor heating pipes, to take on the final floor finish or to be left as a wearing floor surface. An effectively laid screed can considerably increase the lifespan of the complete floor and assure its durability, finish and quality. A suitable screed pump should be employed to quickly ensure a smooth, even blend of cement, sand and water and to pump this perfect mix straight to where its needed. The mixing of screed by hand must only be used where small areas are involved.

Dry Lining Wendover (Plasterboarding)

There are lots of home refurbishment assignments that will need dry lining to be done, and a few Wendover plasterers should be able to do this for you. By affixing plasterboard to metal framing, a brick or masonry surface or a timber studding or joist, an acceptable wall surface is produced which does not need plastering. Although in a few cases the plasterboard itself may be decorated (with a little preparation), an extremely fine surface is produced by giving it one last skim of finishing plaster. As for fittings, when attaching plasterboard to timber joists or studding, nails or drywall screws are used, when fixing to a metal Gypframe Jack-Point self drilling, self tapping screws are used and when fixing to a masonry or brick wall the "dot and dab" method is used.
