What customers in Walthamstow say
In their own words, from a verified review of a job in Walthamstow, E17. Read more reviews.
“Sean came to plaster a ceiling and a wall in a bedroom for us. The ceiling was plasterboard and the wall needed skimming. Great job and finish, tidy and easy to communicate with. We were very happy with the work and asked him to return to do another bedroom ceiling a couple of weeks later.”
What we do in Walthamstow
Questions people in Walthamstow ask us
Can you cover a textured ceiling in Walthamstow?
Yes. In Walthamstow we covered a polytex ceiling, a coating similar to Artex that the owner had put up themselves years before, with a smooth plastered finish. Most sound textured ceilings can be skimmed flat without being taken down.
Which parts of Walthamstow do you cover?
All of E17, including Walthamstow Village, Wood Street, Higham Hill and Upper Walthamstow. It is a short drive from our base in Woodford Green.
Our Walthamstow terrace has old lath and plaster ceilings. Can they be saved?
Sometimes. If a lath ceiling is sound and only tired, it can be overboarded and skimmed, and it keeps its original coving. If it has come away from the laths, is sagging, or sounds hollow across most of it, the honest answer is that it comes down and is reboarded — we have done both in houses of this age. Which one it is takes a look and a tap, not a photograph.
Do I need permission to render a house in Walthamstow?
Repairs and re-rendering an already rendered wall usually do not. Rendering brick for the first time can, and Walthamstow has several conservation areas — Walthamstow Village among them — where rendering the outside of a house is not permitted development at all. A flat is a separate question: the freeholder's consent is usually needed as well. The council is the London Borough of Waltham Forest.
