Frequently Asked Questions — Plasterers in Bannockburn
What is the difference between skimming and rendering in Bannockburn?
Skimming is applying a thin 2–3 mm finish coat over plasterboard or existing plaster. Rendering is applying a thicker weather-resistant coat to exterior walls. Roughcasting (harling) is a type of render where stones are thrown onto wet render, very common on Scottish homes.
How long does plastering take to dry in Bannockburn?
Fresh plaster typically takes 2–3 days to dry in good conditions, but in colder Scottish weather it can take up to a week. The plaster changes from dark pink/brown to light pink/white as it dries. Don't paint or wallpaper until completely dry. Keep rooms ventilated but avoid direct heat which can cause cracking.
What is roughcasting and why is it so common on Bannockburn homes?
Roughcasting (harling) is an external wall finish where small stones are thrown onto wet render. It's common in Scotland because it protects against driving rain. Re-roughcasting a semi-detached house costs £3,000–£6,000. If it's cracking or falling off, water can penetrate your walls, so don't delay repairs.
Do Stirling plasterers cover Bannockburn?

How do I know if I need a replaster in Bannockburn?
Signs you need a replaster: walls feel damp or cold, plaster is crumbling or flaking, hollow sound when tapping the wall, visible cracks wider than hairline, plaster bulging away from the wall, or patches of mould that keep returning. A good plasterer will assess your walls before quoting.
