Skim or replaster

Posted by harjit ghattoura, on
We live in a 1930's terrace we are mid terrace and want to update the property room by room and want to understand if we should just skim the walls and re decorate or remove old plaster and re plaster (board and skim etc) we intend to retain ownership of the property long term although it may be let, and are in a position to have a slightyly larger outlay now. there are patches and repairs to the plaster in all rooms espciecally where the chimney breasts have been removed, there is no current issues with Damp although there have been in the past
