Hi

I have recently had some plastering work undertaken to a small area.
To be honest i'm not impressed with the final finish for the following reasons
- Number of areas where tape can be seen
- Number of area where the beading can be seen
- Number of areas with defects ie lumps or areas of missing plaster
- general flatness of the wall

Now I can obvious have the area re-plastered to a better finish.

Before considering this options id like some opinions on weather it would be worth undertaking the task of sanding & filling the most obvious areas and then relying on 2 coats of paint to hide the rest? Would this work?

A few photos attached as some examples, obviously there are multi area.

Appreciate your thoughts.
