Help appreciated...DIY novice.
Dining room current situation...
Wallpaper stripped back to plaster ready for skim.
Coving removed.
Ceiling aretexed.
Skirting to be replaced, but still on.
Electric sockets added.
Plasterer coming on Monday to skim walls.
Should I remove skirting beforehand? Replacement skirting will be taller.
Now, what order to attach coving / skirting, paint etc...
I'm assuming...
1. Paint ceiling
2. Paint walls
3. Attach coving
4. Paint coving
5. Attach skirting
6. Paint skirting
In other words does the plaster that will end up under the coving/skirting need sealing or painting? Or does it make no difference?
Hope I've made sense,
Thanks in advance.
