FAQs
Plastering questions, answered.
- How long before I can decorate?
- Fresh plaster needs to dry fully — typically 5–7 days for a skim, longer for backing coats. We'll confirm exact drying times before we leave.
- Can you patch repair without skimming the whole wall?
- Yes, where the surrounding plaster is sound. We feather edges carefully so the repair is invisible once decorated.
- Do you handle damp walls?
- We remove blown plaster, treat the substrate and re-plaster with appropriate materials — but underlying damp must be resolved first (we can quote that too).

Customer reviews
Words from our customers.
We had an extension which needed to be repaired as previous builder did not construct correctly. Aran came into the project and ripped out the whole roof. He was clear and precise with the work, whilst managing to keep the project within budget and fitting our timeline. We can't recommend him enough!
Aran and his team built me a custom wardrobe, shelves and storage space for our growing family. After receiving quotes from places like Sharps, his team achieved the same spec for half the price! Thanks lads
I used Framework for a pretty strange but turned out brilliant Argentine-style parrilla/BBQ area in my back yard. He was a very friendly guy and would definitely recommend. Thanks Aran
