On most extensions, the plastering and the rendering are done by different trades who never speak to each other. Using one team for both means:
Extension Plastering and Rendering in Aldershot
An extension is a big investment, and the plastering and rendering are what you see every day once it is finished. Smooth walls inside and a clean, matching render outside are what make a new room feel like it was always part of the house.
Skim Infusion handles the whole finish on extensions across Aldershot, Farnborough, Fleet, Farnham, Camberley and the surrounding area. We work directly for homeowners and alongside builders, inside and out.

Working With Your Builder
If you already have a builder, we can slot into their programme once the shell is up, the roof is on and first fix is complete. We are used to working around other trades and we keep the site clean as we go. Builders are welcome to contact us directly for quotes.

Extension FAQs
When do I need the plasterer on an extension?
Usually once the building is watertight and the electrician and plumber have done their first fix. We can visit early to plan the timings with you or your builder.
Can you match my existing render?
We can usually get very close on colour and texture. If the existing render is old or weathered, re-rendering the whole house gives a perfect match and a fresh look.
How long until I can decorate?
New skim usually needs a week or two to dry out fully, depending on the time of year and ventilation. We will advise you on the right time and the right paint to use first.
Do you do loft and garage conversions?
Yes. We board and skim conversions of all sizes. Learn more about plasterboarding and drylining.
