Hi everyone,
I have just had my chimney breast skimmed, but here were a few sections on the chimney breast which were a little damp, where old gas lamps had been apparently and the holes had been filled, but not very well. In these sections the plasterer knocked out the old mortar and did do some rendering, probably water resistant, and then skimmed on top.
I have booked someone to wallpaper the chimney breasts for about 3 weeks after it was plastered. I am aware that people say you have to wait month before wallpapering a rendered wall, but will it be ok given that most of the wall was just skimmed and there only a couple of sections that were rendered. Whats the worst case scenario?
Thanks.
