Hi,
I'm having the walls and ceilings in one room skimmed by a plasterer. The walls and ceiling used to have thick wall paper on which I removed with a chemical wall paper stripper solution.
What do I need to do to get the walls in the best state for the plasterer, I have already patched the big holes and rubbed down, do I only need to wash the walls down now with Sugar Soap or is there anything else I should do ? Regarding the sugar soap wash down can I do that the day before the plasterer comes or should I do it a couple of days before.
Also if only skimming should I remove the skirting and get behind there skimmed.
Would ask my plasterer but he is away on holiday until the day before he comes to mine.
Cheers
