I had a few broken tiles and water was coming through my roof. The team came out and repaired it on the same day. Great service!

Great from start to finish. Plumber had the unenviable task of locating and repairing a leaking bathroom waste pipe hidden under the kitchen roof, that had brought down part of the kitchen ceiling(s) - both the suspended ceiling and the old lath and plaster ceiling above it. It was an awkward, filthy job that he tackled with aplomb, good humour and professionalism, and the minimum of mess. I was particularly impressed by his pulling on Noddy boots so as not to tramp dirt into my carpets 😁. Seriously, this was totally brilliant service; I shall definitely call JD Plumbing next time I need a plumber, and recommend them most highly.

Ceiling Repairs & Artex Removal

Ceilings take more punishment than any other plastered surface — leaks from above, cracks from movement, and the textured artex finishes that date so many Stockport homes. We repair and re-board damaged ceilings, including older lath-and-plaster ceilings where sections have come away, and we make artex disappear: either skimmed over for a smooth modern finish or removed entirely where that’s the better option.

A word of caution on artex: textured coatings applied before the mid-1980s can contain asbestos, so it should never be sanded or scraped by someone who doesn’t know what they’re dealing with. We’ll assess yours first and recommend the safe route — in most cases, skimming over the top gives you a flawless flat ceiling without disturbing the original coating at all.

Damp, Cracking & Problem Walls

Plastering over a problem doesn’t fix it — it hides it for six months. If your walls show damp patches, salt staining, flaking paint, or cracks that keep coming back, we investigate the cause before any plaster goes on. Because JD Property Services is a full building firm, not just a plastering outfit, the same team can deal with what we find: a failed gutter or roofline letting water in, a bridged damp-proof course, or condensation issues that need ventilation rather than plaster.

Once the cause is fixed, we make good properly — hacking off damaged plaster, treating the wall, and re-plastering with the right materials for the job, including breathable or renovation plasters where the wall needs to dry out. The result is a repair that lasts, not one you’ll be calling someone back for next year.

FAQs

Every job is different, so we quote in person and the price we quote is the price you pay, with no hidden extras.

As a guide, re-skimming the walls of a standard bedroom typically costs £250–£450, a larger living room £400–£800, and a ceiling £300–£700 depending on size and condition. Full re-boarding and plastering costs more than a skim over sound existing plaster.

Skimming is a thin finishing coat of plaster (a few millimetres) applied over existing plaster or plasterboard to leave a smooth surface ready for decorating. Full plastering means building up the wall from scratch (typically a backing coat followed by a finish coat) and is needed on bare brick, new plasterboard, or walls where the old plaster has failed. Most rooms in good condition only need a skim.

Fresh plaster usually takes 4–7 days to dry fully, longer in cold or poorly ventilated rooms. It’s ready when it turns from dark to a uniform light pink. Your first coat of paint should be a “mist coat” (watered-down emulsion) so the plaster doesn’t pull the moisture out of standard paint and cause peeling. We’ll advise on timings before we leave.

Yes, in most cases skimming over artex is the best option, giving you a smooth, modern ceiling without disturbing the old coating. That matters because artex applied before the mid-1980s can contain asbestos and should never be sanded or scraped off casually. We assess the ceiling first and recommend the safe route; where removal is genuinely the better choice, we’ll tell you and explain why.

Always. Plastering over damp or active cracking just hides the problem temporarily. We identify the cause first, and because we’re a full building firm we can fix it ourselves, whether that’s a leaking gutter, a bridged damp-proof course, or ventilation issues. Only once the wall is sound do we hack off damaged plaster and re-plaster with the right materials, including breathable plasters where a wall needs to dry out.

Just clear the room as much as you can. Furniture out or moved to the centre, pictures and curtains down, and floors clear. We handle the rest: protective sheeting over everything that stays, and a full tidy-up when we’re done, leaving no plaster dust behind. If radiators or sockets need moving for the work, mention it when we quote so it’s all planned in.
