Hi All ,
I am new to the forum. Bought an Edwardian house that needs a lot of work sometime ago and I am trying to do it up as I go along. Unfortunately I have met some bad "builders" as well as good ones over the last few years and eventually came to the idea of doing it myself as much as I can now to avoid hassle and disappointment and save some cash in the meantime.
I had an old window in my living room looking into the garden which I had recently replaced with a pair of wooden French doors which created a little mess that needs tidying up.
Hence I am on here asking for some help in order to overboard and plaster the door reveals properly.
I am thinking of removing all the old plaster on the left side and dot and dab plaster board.
Is this the way to do it ?
On the right side however the wall goes a few meters and I would prefer not to take the plaster off since it was plastered only 2 years ago before the French doors were fitted.
Any other tips ideally a step by step guide on this whole job would be appreciated.
