Application of Galashiels exterior render

Protection is needed from weather for exterior surfaces and application of exterior surfacing materials can achieve this. Different rendering techniques can be used by Galashiels plasterers, and many exterior finishes for properties are regional specific. Render can either be applied as part of the design for a new home's exterior, or old brickwork can be coated that has deteriorated with age. Plain render can be applied smooth or textured and use of coloured render can mean painting is unnecessary, or cheaper renders that require painting can be applied. Another low maintenance option is a textured render

Galashiels plastering of interior walls

Quality Galashiels plastering specialists mix plaster so a trowel can apply plaster from the hawk to the wall, and then floats made from plastic or steel are used by the plasterer to level the surface. Quality plasterers in Galashiels tend to apply two coats of plaster, providing time for drying of the initial coating before the top layer is added to finish the surface, but before this, scratching tools will leave the surface rough which makes sure the two plaster layers bond effectively. Where walls meet with corners, attachment of plaster beads is needed for corner definition
