Our professional edge
A finish that looks right in daylight
Flat walls matter most when the room is bright. We work for an even result that still looks good when natural light hits every angle.
Experience that helps avoid common problems
With 15 years behind us, we know how to prepare and apply plaster properly. That helps reduce drag marks, uneven drying and rough patches.
Work carried out with less fuss
Renovation work is disruptive enough without extra mess. We keep the job moving and leave you with surfaces that are ready for the next step.
Smooth walls and ceilings that are ready to decorate
Skimming is one of the best ways to give tired rooms a clean start, especially when your walls or ceilings are marked, uneven or covered in old texture. We apply a fresh coat of plaster to create a smooth plaster finish that gives paint and wallpaper a far better surface to sit on. That makes a real difference during renovations, where patchy areas and dated finishes can spoil the look of the whole room.
We carry out wall skimming and ceiling skimming with a focus on neat work and a tidy result. John Mcgarry Plastering Services brings 15 years of hands-on experience to each job, including knowledge gained as a former plastering instructor.

A practical fix for damaged and outdated surfaces
Old artex, hairline cracks and rough plaster can make a room feel older than it is, even after you've decorated it. Our skimming work covers those worn surfaces with an even new layer that helps bring the room back into shape.
We take care to leave sharp lines around edges and a flat finish across wider areas because those details show once the light hits the wall. that can be especially useful in older properties where ceilings and walls have seen years of repairs and repainting. Contact us now for more details.
