about plastering

Welcome to LM finishes, your trusted partner for professional plastering services. Whether you're renovating your home or building from scratch, plastering is a vital step to ensure smooth, durable, and aesthetically pleasing walls and ceilings.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the different types of plastering and their benefits, helping you make an informed choice for your home.

Plastering is the process of applying a layer of plaster to walls or ceilings to create a smooth, protective, and decorative surface. Plaster not only improves the appearance of your interiors but also protects walls from moisture, cracks, and other forms of damage.

Cement plaster is a popular choice for both interior and exterior walls. It’s made by mixing cement, sand, and water to create a sturdy layer.

Benefits:

• Highly durable and weather-resistant.
• Ideal for outdoor walls due to its toughness.
• Provides a smooth base for painting or decorative finishes.

Gypsum plaster is a modern, lightweight alternative to cement plaster. It’s created by mixing gypsum powder with water, forming a quick-setting paste.

Benefits:

• Quick drying and easy to apply.
• Provides excellent insulation against heat and sound.
• Creates a smooth, crack-free finish ideal for interiors.

Lime plaster is an eco-friendly option made from lime and sand. It has been used for centuries in traditional and modern homes.

Benefits:

• Naturally breathable, preventing moisture buildup.
• Antibacterial properties that help prevent mold growth.
• Flexible and crack-resistant, making it ideal for older structures.

For those seeking a unique aesthetic, decorative plastering offers textured finishes, intricate patterns, or custom designs.

Benefits:

• Enhances your home’s visual appeal.
• Customizable to match any style or theme.
• Adds value to your property with bespoke details.
