Plastering & Tiling in Exeter & Devon

Plastering, wall preparation, repairs and professional wall and floor tiling across Exeter and Devon.

  • Friendly local team
  • Fully insured
  • VAT registered
  • Complete project management
  • Exeter & Devon

Plastering and tiling are the two trades where the finish is completely determined by what is underneath. A wall that is not flat will show through the paint. A floor that is not level will crack the tiles.

We do both, and we do the preparation that makes both work, whether it is one wall, one room, or a whole property.

We work across Exeter, Devon and the surrounding area.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does plaster take to dry before painting?

Usually between three days and a week depending on thickness, ventilation and the time of year. Painting too early traps moisture and the finish suffers, so we will tell you when it is genuinely ready.

Can you tile over existing tiles?

Sometimes, but it is rarely the right answer. If the existing tiles are sound and flat it can work; more often removing them and correcting the surface underneath gives a better and longer-lasting result.

Do you install underfloor heating?

Yes, beneath tiled floors, including the substrate preparation and levelling that makes it work properly.

Do you do small patch repairs?

Yes. Not every job needs to be a whole room.
