About the building
We ask because it changes who should look at the job, not so we can diagnose it from
here. Listed building consent may be required for work affecting historic fabric, and
that is worth confirming with Shropshire Council before anyone starts.
One thing worth saying now
Plastering does not fix the source of a leak or a damp problem. If something is still
getting wet, that cause needs resolving first, or the new finish will fail in the same
place.

Step 4 Can you show us the job?
Photos are optional, but they are the single biggest thing that makes an enquiry easy to
price. Three good ones beat six rushed ones.
One wide shot of the whole wall, ceiling or room. One close-up of the cracks, blown areas, texture or damage. One from the opposite corner, so we can see access and scale. Please do not disturb older textured coatings
Do not scrape, sand, drill or break a textured coating just to take a better photo.
Coatings applied before 2000 may contain asbestos. If that is a possibility, leave it
alone and get competent advice first.
