Hi all,
I am thinking of renovating a 1930's ish four bedroom terrace property based in the midlands that has chip wall paper everywhere. Not sure of the plaster type but it’s defiantly not plaster boarded.
I suspect upon removal of the chip wallpaper the walls will require a re-skim at the very least. There is also a couple of areas where the plaster is damaged and loose and will need replacing.
Wondered if anyone had any example quotes\cost indications to re-plaster the entire house?
Someone mentioned it could be worth going back to brick and plaster boarding it rather than just patching and skimming.
Not sure of the benefit of doing so other than opportunity to fit plasterboard or maybe it’s better from an insulation perspective?
Suspect this would increase the price dramatically, possible double it?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts and indicative example prices.
Have attached a picture which hopefully indicates the plaster type.
