Period homes near Epsom town centre
Close to the centre, Epsom has Victorian and Edwardian housing where ceilings may still be original and rooms often have cornice or ceiling roses. Plastering here is as much about protecting those details as about the new finish: skimming is brought neatly up to existing cornice rather than cutting it back.
Older walls in these houses can have plaster that has lost its grip behind years of heavy wallpaper. We tap out walls before quoting so hollow areas are repaired, not hidden under a skim.
