Dealing with cracks and uneven plaster
A sound background matters as much as the final skim. Where existing plaster was loose, it was taken back; areas needing more build-up were treated with bonding before finishing plaster was applied. That approach helps avoid leaving weak patches hidden beneath a smooth-looking surface.
Timing, drying and decorating
The original job notes record two days of plastering across the living room and hallway. That is the time recorded for the work itself, not a promise that new plaster will be ready to paint two days later. Drying depends on the depth of plaster, ventilation and conditions in the property.
There are no verified photographs attached to this particular Camden project record, so this page does not use images from another job. The details above are based on the written account rather than an assumed before-and-after result.
