After a new exterior door was installed in a Pawleys Island home, the surrounding walls were patchy, uneven and stained.

We repaired the damaged areas, then skim-coated the walls with a smooth plaster finish so the room is ready for paint.

The challenge on this job

The walls had several different surfaces and old repairs. We bonded and primed each area, then applied the skim coat in thin layers so it dried evenly.

  • Damaged sections repaired
  • Bonding primer applied
  • Smooth skim coat in thin layers
  • Edges at the door frame finished
