Tired of Cracked, Uneven or Damaged Walls?

Cracks, uneven surfaces, old textured finishes and damaged plaster can quickly make an otherwise well-kept room look tired. Painting over the problem rarely provides the finish you want, and underlying damage may need attention before decorating can begin.

You might be renovating an older property, repairing walls after other building work or simply looking to refresh a room that has seen better days. Whatever the reason, good preparation and a professional plaster finish can completely change how the space looks and feels.

At Jarrett & Sons, we assess the condition of your walls and ceilings before recommending the right approach. Our aim is simple: to leave you with smooth, professionally finished surfaces that provide the ideal foundation for the next stage of your project.

In addition to plastering and skimming, Jarrett & Sons also provide damp proofing solutions for properties across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast. We’ll assess the affected area and recommend an appropriate course of action, with any damaged plaster and finishes restored as part of the work where required. Damp problems can affect both the appearance and structural integrity of your walls, so we identify the cause and apply the appropriate treatment to prevent further damage. For external walls, our rendering work offers a durable, weather-resistant finish that not only protects your property but also improves its overall appearance.

For added peace of mind, all of our damp proofing work comes with a 10-year guarantee.

What’s Included?

Our plastering and skimming services cover everything from refreshing existing surfaces to repairing damaged areas as part of a wider renovation. We’ll assess the condition of the surface first and explain what work is needed to achieve a high-quality, lasting finish.

The cost of plastering depends on the size and condition of the area, the preparation required, and the type of work involved.

Wall & Ceiling Skimming

We skim existing walls and ceilings to create a smooth, even surface, helping to cover imperfections and provide a clean finish ready for decorating.

Plaster Repairs

Cracks, damaged areas and deteriorated plaster can be carefully repaired and blended into the surrounding surface to restore a consistent finish.

Rendering (External Finishes)

We apply durable external render to protect and improve the appearance of exterior walls, helping to weatherproof your property while achieving a clean, professional finish.

Damp Proofing
Treatments

We identify and treat signs of damp, applying appropriate damp proofing solutions to help prevent further moisture problems and protect your property, with all damp proofing work backed by a 10-year guarantee.

Plastering for
Renovations

If you’re renovating a room or property, we can complete the necessary plastering and preparation work as part of the wider project, giving you a professional foundation for decorating.

Surface Preparation & Finishing

Good plastering starts with proper preparation. We’ll assess and prepare surfaces before applying the appropriate finish, helping to achieve results that look good and stand the test of time.

Protecting and Refreshing Your Property’s Exterior

Rendering Services

External walls are constantly exposed to changing weather conditions, and over time existing render can begin to crack, deteriorate or simply look tired.

Professional rendering can give your property a cleaner, more attractive appearance while also providing an additional layer of protection to the exterior walls.

Jarrett & Sons provide rendering services across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast, from repairing problem areas to refreshing external surfaces with a professionally applied finish. As with our interior plastering, careful preparation is an important part of achieving a durable result.

Whether your existing render is showing signs of wear or you’re looking to improve the appearance of your property, we’ll assess what’s needed and provide straightforward advice.
