Ok, the story is that we're re-decorating the sitting room... New fireplace, carpets, and hopefully no woodchip wallpaper. That's where the problem is: under the wallpaper the walls are bad. The plaster is obviously coming away from the walls in spots, other places it's already gone (I can see the dents under the paper). Under the plaster the walls are concrete and were 'shuttered' (or so I've been told... no nice flat bricks).
I know a professional is going to have to be involved in this, but I'd like to have an idea of what needs to be done first. Should I pull all (or as much as possible) of the plaster down? Should I try to leave as much as I can? Can anyone provide some advice?? Thanks!
