Professional from preparation to completion
Machine-applied spray plaster for suitable larger wall and ceiling areas in new-build, renovation and development projects across Edinburgh and the Lothians.
Spray plastering uses machine-applied finishing compounds on suitable surfaces before the material is levelled, smoothed and prepared for decoration. It is particularly effective where consistent application across larger areas is required.
The substrate, joints, corners and environmental conditions are checked before work begins. Floors, windows, fittings and adjoining finishes are protected, and the product sequence follows the project specification.
Application speed is only one part of the process. Controlled smoothing, drying, inspection and sanding determine the final surface. Coordination with Ames taping and decoration can create an efficient finishing programme.
Local knowledge
Edinburgh new builds, conversions and larger refurbishments can benefit from a coordinated package of Ames taping, spray plastering and spray painting. Suitability depends on the substrate, scale, access and programme, so we assess the full package rather than promising one method for every room.
Our working process
The exact specification changes from project to project, but the principles remain consistent.
We inspect the surfaces, access and condition before defining the scope.
Preparation, products and application method are selected for the project.
Surrounding finishes and occupied areas are organised and protected.
The work is applied, checked and handed over in the agreed condition.
Frequently asked questions
It is commonly considered for larger areas of suitable plasterboard or prepared backgrounds in new builds, renovations and developments.
No. Joints, corners, substrate condition and protection must still be handled correctly before and during application.
Yes. PAINTTEC can discuss a coordinated specification including taping, spray plaster and subsequent painting.
No. Spray plastering applies a finishing compound that is smoothed and prepared; spray painting applies the decorative coating system.
